Damn Small Linux - Not!

This new distro seems a good work.
But I experienced this problem:
-I use to buil a multiboot CD including DSL. This time I made the ISO with the DSL-N a2 new distro. The method I am using is Bart's way, as described in my page. I edit the isolinux.cfg and the bootmsg.txt files, and include the linux and miniroot images in the isolinux folder.
-When I make a miniCD, DSL-N is able to recognice at boot time my mouses (both, USB and PS/2) and starts the GUI desktop normally.
-The same isolinux configuration for the multiboot, in a miniDVD produces the effect that I cannot start the X Windows system in any configuration.

I do not understand what is happening.

Is somebody aware of this, and has solved it?

Thanks.

You may wish to try RC1 the alpha "a" cuts were pretty buggy.
Some were having issues with booting.
