What I try to say is: there are different ways to use DSL, you can:

- Always load it from the CD (Some people says that boot time then is too long)
- Load it from an USB pen
- Load it inside XP (It is said to be slow)
- Load it from the HD (Frugal or traditional installation)

Of course in the first 3 case, you can install XP on the HD (And partitionning isn't needed).

Hi guys, well the bad news i used partition magic to make partition and laptop crashed, and the only option i had when recovery console failed was to re-install and guess what laptop turns off at the same point, and now no laptop.

i will have to call the repair man to help me

thank you for you help so far on the linux DSL subject   ...


I shall return

Hi guys, I am back and will try again to use DSL and hopefully will be successful. when  I re-installed windows partitions were made then , so all i have to do is load DSL onto one of my drives.


So here goes ....
