DSL Embedded :: Memory problem

Greetings,

I recently installed DSL embedded and it runs rather sluggishly. I am a Linux newbie and I've noticed that it says I have 128 MB of RAM, which is incorrect. I have 640 MB of RAM. I've tried finding ways to fix this issue, but I haven't been able to. Please help. Here is a screenshot of what I see when loading DSL:

Edit your DSL-windows.bat file.

Add the line:

-m 256

in front of the

-hda

parameter.

This reserves 256 MB of RAM for your "Virtual Computer" that is running the DSL Embedded OS.

If you want to go higher, be my guest. But I don't recommend using all 640MB of RAM because the host operating system (MSWindows) will not like that.

I did what you asked and it's still unbareably slow. Thank you for your help though.

If you are using Windows XP to run embedded use the vplayer virtual machine rather than qemu. Qemu is slow - not DSL!

Search for Vplayer on these forums to find out what to do.
