Hi,
I just made a DSL-live cd and tried it out... but I am wondering about two things: is it possible to store files on the hd?
And if I connect a usb ''drive'' how can i get into this thing?

1. yes
2. if it's plugged during boot, I think the new DSL versions will have it listed in the mount tool.
Or else,
ls /mnt/sd*
mount /mnt/sdXx

Use the mount tool, then access it via /mnt/whatever_was_listed_in_that_tool

You can also mount from the filemanager(s).
