HD Install :: frugal install, where do I store dsl packages?
I've got a frugal install but I haven't gotten my downloaded dsl packages to automatically load after a reboot.
Here's a breakdown of what I'm trying now.
hda1 - dsl install hda2 - where I have my backup file and .dsl packages. I've loaded them using the tool after mounting hda2 hda3 - is used for pictures right now.
I'm following some instructions that were written a few months ago(I guess dsl3.2) and I'm trying this with 3.4.3 - could this be an issue?
in my menu.lst I have this: kernel /boot/linux24 root=/dev/hda2
Is this correct?
Thanks.root should be /dev/hda1 if DSL is on hda1, but that might not be related to your problem
Put mydsl extensions that you want to auto-load in the mydsl directory, and optional (not auto-installed) extensions in the optional directory.Shouldn't he then add "mydsl=hda2" to the boot line?

Not necessary as an auto scan will be performed.Thanks guys, I'll give this a try and let you know how it works out.

UPDATE: This is working pretty well now. I'm still trying to get a few things working here, but they appear to be separate issues.
