Hi everyone

Ive got DSL up and running and I think the myDSL tool is great but Im stuck on how to save my settings including the screen set up. Ive tried the back up tool (i wanted to use a floppy as a back up device like you can do in knoppix) but it doesnt seem to work!

Its probably something Ive missed to do! is there a easy step by step way of doing it?

Thanks for your help

did you do this: ?

open fluxbox menu (right click on your desktop)
goto system, backup/restore
type in the window (as backup-device) fd0
click on Backup

?

I'm having the same problem.  I'm running DSL off a usb drive and am looking to save the settings (desktop, files, etc) to the usb drive also.  Should I save them under backup/restore to fd0 too?
