HD Install :: ISO

i want to upgrade dsl but my burner no longer works and want to know if i can run the iso file using my current dsl(if possible).

1. Boot with the toram option
2. download the latest dsl
3. Become the root user ( sudo su )
4. Make an iso directory ( mkdir /mnt/iso )
5. mount the iso ( mount -t iso9660 -o loop dsl-1.2.iso /mnt/iso)
6. copy over the new KNOPPIX file from
/mnt/iso/KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX, to wherever your frugal is installed
( e.g. /mnt/hda2/KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX )
7. Shutdown/Reboot
8. Enjoy your new, upgraded DSL distro.

Ok, i downloaded what i thought was DSL, and it came out as an .iso file, what do run that with?

If it is not the setup what do i do?

It is also running (or trying to) in windows.

Hello,
is it possible to upgrade without a new full hd-install?

Are there complications afterwards?

A frugal install is the easiest to upgrade. You can easily upgrade it by running /usr/sbin/frugal_instal.sh and selecting the upgrade option. You can do this in a number of ways: with the iso burned to a cd, just having the iso file on a drive or by doing it over the net.
