Wrong choice of market share target
#3
First time I've used badwolf, impressed. Using it to post this.

I installed DSL frugally i.e. using grub4dos to boot it, extracted the initrd.gz, vmlinuz and /antiX/linuxfs from the ISO to my sda1

Created a grub4dos menu.lst entry for that

title DSL
kernel /vmlinuz from=hd bdev=sda1 sq=/antiX/linuxfs kbd=gb dpi=144
initrd /initrd.gz

the sq= ... isn't required as /antiX/linuxfs is the default anyway.

A bit slow to load, I assume the linuxfs is using a high/slow xz compression. I see that the kernel was built with lz4 compression support so I'm just extracting the linuxfs sfs as I post this and will recreate it using lz4 -Xhc compression. That combined with using jwm for the desktop should make it a lot snappier/quicker (lz4 combined with a SDD - and that runs/extracts at near ram bus speed).
