Other Help Topics :: Burning a new DSL CD



I've just made my first .dsl application (gnomeicu.dsl) and I want to make a CD with this application so...how can I make a new DSL CD with the gnomeicu.dsl (and future applications I can make) ?
Tks
There are many ways to remaster DSL.
Search the forums for the words remaster, iso, extensions

The easiest way to get a .dsl file on your cdrom is rebuilding the .iso file itself
win-iso and Ultraiso are tools used in the Windows OS that make this easy
You can make a directory called "optional" , drag it into the existing iso, and put
as many extensions in it as you want. save as your "new.iso" and burn to cdr
When you boot into DSL, all your .dsl files will be available in your menu

If you would like to contribute your extension to the DSL repository,
please send it, along with a md5sum, and a description file to
extensions@damnsmalllinux.org
See the repository for examples of a .info, or description file

I'll tray what you said Thanks!
Now tell me before I send you my .dsl: Others .dsl when 'installed' put an icon on the desktop How can I do that whit my application? How  can I add/remove icons assigns icons to applications, erase un-wanted icons etc I've installed whiteBox But I do not see how to do it..
My .dsl seems to work well I've tried in a empty boot with cd and 'dsl base' as cheatcode so I think it can works fine. When I can assign it an icon will be yours!
Tks!
Look in your "/home/dsl/.xtdesktop" folder...
All your icons are there, as well as the links...
Just follow the examples...
When you build your .dsl , just add the 2 files...
Menu options are placed into a dir called
/tmp/mydsl.menu...

See other .dsl files for examples, or search the forums
for tmp...

I have downloaded the dsl-0.7.3.iso and want to burn a cd that will boot
with the same characteristics that the DSL cd that I purchased has.

What is the procedure to do that? And what is the correct 'cdrecord' syntax?
