I bought this USB memory stick from Lizard Biscuit with DSL pre-installed.  I have got it working very well, but one problem is that when I start it up via dsl-vhd.bat, the Command Prompt window sticks around.  Here is the script in its current form:
Code Sample
REM Start qemu on windows.
@ECHO OFF

START qemu\qemu.exe -L qemu/ -no-kqemu -m 512 -soundhw es1370 -localtime -kernel linux24 -initrd minirt24.gz -hda KNOPPIX/knoppix -hdb qemu/harddisk -redir tcp:22222::22 -append "qemu frugal quiet restore=hdb mydsl=hdb/mydsl noscsi nousb nofirewire atapicd noideraid noacpi acpi=off noapm noagp ide1=noprobe ide2=noprobe nomce syslog tz=US/Pacific"

CLS
EXIT
Do I need to change some property on the script so the MSDOS window disappears when DSL comes up?

No idea, you could try changing the properties - or you could try a "shortcut" instead.

Do you know how I'd do either of these things?   I tried looking at the Shortcut Properties and it wasn't obvious what I needed to change.  Same for the Command Window properties.

Thanks.

(Sorry for these Windows-specific questions...)

Looks like qemu invokes it... so you'll probably have a better chance looking in that, but you could just minimize the window instead.

get rid of the word 'START' ?
