I set up my DSL on windows and have everything running great.. custom icons, ect..  but when I run DSL on a linux pc all desktop settings are reset back to defaults.. even the dillo getting started loads, which I had turned off..

how do I get DSL to be the same wether loaded on linux or windows.. by dsl-windows.bat and dsl-linux.sh look simalar

You need to use the boot option
boot:  dsl qemu

This will give you a "device" /dev/harddisk

You can also use the boot options
boot:  dsl qemu restore=harddisk

This will allow you to share the same virtual drive between Qemu/Windows and Native
