Even if DSL has a newer kernel there are a number of computers where it will not be able to boot from USB yet featherlinux with an older kernel will be able to boot just fine - do they have something special in their USB configuration ? Thanks for the great 2.1 !
Can anyone tell me how to change the background of jwm ? Or shall i asc in the X and fluxbox topic ?
regards FrankSetup->Desktop->Wallpaper It uses the same tool as fluxbox and therefore the same location for the backgroundscc, want an older kernel 2.4.26, we still offer dsl 1.5 and even older kernels, see the download archive section. Even dsl v05.3.1 for sx computers. Or was this just an advertisement?

No, I would really like the latest kernel BUT I was just curious of what differences there are - I know very little about the initial scripts used in the very early stages and I managed to get to the point where I compare the original linuxrc (from inside minirt.gz) from DSL and featherlinux - there are not so many differences, only it seems that featherlinux is very early starting the USB modules (it has something like USB_MODULES="usbcore.o ehci-hcd.o usb-ohci.o usb-uhci.o usb-storage.o" very early and then something lke # Load USB modules for booting loadmodules USB $USB_MODULES mount -t usbdevfs none /proc/bus/usb > /dev/null # need to sleep because it takes some time to register things sleep 4 echo "0" > /proc/sys/kernel/printk a little later) but obviously I am not experienced enough to take those things from there to DSL and I was wondering if I could convince somebody that knows what he is doing to look at that ... sorry if that looks a little lame Next Page...
