DSL Embedded :: Autoloading of extensions not working?

The reason is that using mydsl gui is both downloading and installing them. The installation part requires user DSL as menu and icons are for that user. Also, by default DSL does not mount drives with general user access.

To answer your question on auto loading extensions.
The new feature in 2.3RC2 does not require mydsl=hdb to the .bat file.

Simply mount hdb then as root mkdir /mnt/hdb/mydsl
Extensions stored in this directory will auto load.

BTW, you can as root directly download extensions.
For example:

# cd /mnt/hdb/mydsl
# mydsl-wget xchat.tar.gz net

This will download xchat.tar.gz from the net section of the repository. Then upon the next boot it will autoload.
