you can not backup to your hda1 (ntfs)so your options are floppy, or sda1 sda1 = /cdrom sad1 has to bee writebable if you dont like your sda1 aka /cdrom writeable while you are working with dsl you could add the "mount /cdrom -o remount,rw" to powerdown.sh yust before the "filetool.sh restore noprompt" line. once you have your powerdown.sh altered (that is remove the # in front of the "filetool.sh restore noprompt" line) if will backup automatily the files and diretctorys in named in /home/dsl/filetool.list (this file contains /opt/bootlocal.sh, /opt/powerdown.sh, itself and some outher useful setting, you can add more to this ie. /home/dsl/.emelfm) now put restore=sda1 to the line in your loadlin.par then it should restore the setting at boot time |
