I have an old computer with 64Mb RAM, without a connection to the internet. I want to start DSL from the CDROM, and I also want to put in the CDROM a program that is not in the ISOLINUX.
How can I build this CDROM ?
I have looked in the FAQ, but found nothing.

Regards.

Sorry and sorry again for my above response. A mistake, not that!
What is that program?
Many programs that are not in the DSL isolinux can be add as MyDSL extensions.

Thanks for the quick answer.

I don't thing that the name of a program is important.
I am interesting by the principle, to boot from the CDROM and not change this CDROM to run another program. For an every use it is not acceptable for me.

Regards.

One method from many others:
You can write the original DSL image together with your collections of MyDSL extensions (MyDSL extensions = Programs not in DSL iso image) onto the cdrom.

Other method:
It is not necessary that the MyDSL extensions are in the same Live CD, they can be in the hard disk before boot the DSL Live CD.

Have in mind that DSL is very versatile. Perhaps the more versatile system operative. But with the condition that you impose to decide to use or not DSL, you never will imagine the DSL potential.

I recommed you: Burning your Live CD and try DSL anyway!!
