Hi,

I'm new to dsl and have install embeded and backed up while shuting down. Now every time dsl starts it tries to restore but locks up with 100%cpu.

Is there a way to startup embedded using qemu and to skip the restore. I dont appear to get any boot options and ctrl 'c' or break does not work ?

thanks is advance,
olan

whats your machine spec such as RAM ?

on the boot menu, try typing the command "DSL TORAM" then <enter>. Try that command with your usb drive out of your pc.

see if it will boot up and then check your CPU if its still reading 100

Thanks for your solution/suggestions.

I tried added norestore after frugal and worked a treat.

Thanks again,
olan
