Hello

How can I install firefox extensions and plugins in to DSL embedded to get them persistent?

I didn't find that in FAQ ...

Is it possible to syncronize my .firefox from my linuxbox into DSL embedded, to have my bookmarks.. around?

Thanx in advance

Hubi

Find out what directory your extensions are saved in, then add that directory (or, alternatively, those files) to your ~/.filetool.lst

To get your old bookmarks, export them as a file.  The easiest thing to do, regardless if you're running DSL embedded or from a LiveCD, would be to email that file to yourself, and then open up a browswer from within DSL, access your email, download it, and load it up.

I'm pretty sure firefox already saves your bookmarks.  If not, just include the path to that file in your ~/.filetool.lst

Firefox bookmarks:

/home/dsl/.mozilla/firefox

Firefox plugins:

/home/dsl/.mozilla/plugins

save those to /.filetool.lst

You should not have to add anything to .filetool.lst as the default is to include all of /home/dsl/
