Release Candidates :: DSL-2.1RC3

Here's a problem:

-I created a 1GB vmdk file using qemu-img.exe.
-made a vmx file using the template from http://blog.lorenzoferrara.net/pivot/entry.php?id=73
-loaded the ISO with vmplayer and DSL boots fine.
-created a Linux partition with cfdisk
-performed a traditional hard drive install, no to multiple logins, no to ext3, selected lilo
-rebooted, loaded fine until it looped at the prompt for creating a password for dsl
-rebooted, loaded as before, but it skipped the password prompts and went right to the desktop. The apps work fine for now.

Both are related to the same issue.
passwd not compiled into new busybox.
Will fix it. Thanks for the report, guys.

Here's what I get for the script for downloading a list of streams:

Code Sample

I don't see any thing in my playlist after selecting High Bandwidth. The same thing happens for Low Bandwidth. radiostorm.com is now a Spanish religious site. di.fm might have rearranged its site since the script was written on January 15, 2004. This affects all versions of DSL with the script.

What? You don't like Spanish religious site

Well, at least my classical music is still there in xmms.

Thanks for reporting.

For now, I'll use the SHOUTcast site. radiostorm used to play music of popular genres like rock, country, and hip-hop. Now it redirects to eleden.net, which is actually a small Spanish portal.
