DSL 0.9.1 runs best with backup/restore to hda10 (native 83), just desktop-styles unstored.
if I try a sudo dsl-hdinstall with hda10 (1GB), got error "...sorry ...not detected linux-partition..."
hd-script detects on file-type "83". what type is necessary for DSL

..what's wrong now

First thing to do, is download gnu-utils.dsl and load that extension.
then rightclick your desktop, tools, harddisk install as normal dsl user !
Then it should work.

I supose that an fdisk will also resold in a failure ... load gnu-utils.dsl and this will also work. just try it out.

Happy installing, it runs great from harddisk!

..thats it !!!
brilliant idea. saves long time searching. downloading using my-dsl button. tricky.
hd-install running succesfull. placing a hint in hd-install FAQ might be helpfull for others.
now I try embedding in my personal kanotix-grub-menu.
:;):

thx sooo much

Hi

I am a new mwmber, joined today.

All the documentation and comments on dsl-hdinstall forget to mentioin that you need to be su to run ds-hdinstall.

All you need to do is :

#cfdisk #create linux partition on /dev/hdc
#su
#dsl-hdinstall #follow the prompts, they are logical
#mkliloboot

Took me 10 minutes for whole installation aftre 2hours of searching once I realised where the problems were.

Now I cam get my teeth into this baby.
