DSL Embedded :: Install DSL on HD Wihtout booting
Hi,
I have downloaded DSL and I use the option to start DSL from within Windows XP. This is ok but now I loose my settings everytime. How can I install DSL to my HD so I my settings are preserved, withouth having to boot into DSL but still launch it from Windows...
(another qemu victim ?) 
you can't launch from xp unless it's at boot, maybe this will help; http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/wiki/index.php/Loadlin_Install
I think he still means qemu.
See backup/restore. If you plan on using qemu still, you might want to create a virtual harddisk. (And if this is the case, this should be in the embedded forum section)
