I can't offer a more specific solution for your problem because you did not give enough details (what are you running DSL from? what is your internet connection? were you able to use any browser from DSL? what exactly did you do to download the extension? what error messages did you see?).
But I can give you some way to diagnose you problem, assuming you have an internet connection.
Open an XTerm window. At the prompt, type the following:
| Code Sample |
wget http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/damnsmall/mydsl/gnu-utils.dsl
|
This will download the gnu-utils.dsl file onto /home/dsl. If this did not work, your problem is your internet connection. Check if the file was downloaded properly, at least by confirming that its size is around 9 MB.
Then at the prompt, type the following:
| Code Sample |
mydsl-load gnu-utils.dsl
|
This will load the extension. Check this by executing the following command:
If you see any mention of "busybox", it did not load properly. Otherwise if you see something like "report any bugs to <coreutils@gnu.org>", the extension is active. If the extension did not load properly at this point, your DSL copy have problems.
