Right, I've gone for a frugal install, and this on a Libretto 50CT with no CDROM. Technique was to put the DSL files onto a hard disk partition and then use loadlin to run it from MSDOS. Only real issue was that the 'unpacking' of the files for loadlin's use led to the frugal install failing to copy over files in the /boot directory - copied those manually and we're away.
One question, though (no doubt there will be more!) - where on the hard disk is my /home? Torsmo says there's 117Mb in it, which doesn't match up to any of the partitions I've got set up. At the same time, I have a totally unused partition and I'd be happy to put /home there - would it cause any trouble if I copied everything in /home to /dev/hda8, then edited /etc/fstab to mount it as /home in future?
Oh, and how do I get rid of the pager and the mount tool/volume control on the desktop? They just take up space I haven't got on this tiny machine!
