myDSL Extensions (deprecated) :: Making a mydsl .iso



Hi,
Is there some way to make a mydsl CD that is exactly the same as my current settings. So on boot, the current theme im using would be there, settings i have changed for rox (file manager extension) will be the same as i left them etc. Prettymuch i want nothing changed, i want exactly what i have on my screen now. Is this possible, and/or is this wat happens when i make a mydsl iso??

Pretty sure you are talking about a remaster.  My linux comp. is broken but I'm pretty sure in the right-click menu it's under apps --> tools --> make mydsl remaster.  I think that has a script to make an iso.
When you backup, then restart, are things "how you want them" ?

If so, then add your backup.tar.gz file, renamed to mybackup.tar.gz,
to your mydsl.iso.  It should behave as you expect.

Ive never actually backed up, could someone please explain this process?
With DSL1.3.1 you click on the DSL tools icon and there is a button for BackUp/Restore. Click the button and it will ask where you want to backup to. I like to backup to a pendrive (sda1) but you could rewrite to a CD or the hardrive or whatever. When you do it creates a compressed file with all of your changes in it to that drive/directory. That's very cool.
