Good morning Patrick,

i think i did not make clear where to put the *.dsl
if am right:
you have a usb-memorry-stick. formated 1 fat partion, it boots to dos.
this is drive C: ?
i guess your drive looks something like

command.com
msdos.sys
io.sys
dostools           <DIR>
loadlin.exe
loadlin.par
linux.bat                     <---- this calls loaldlin and starts dsl
knoppix            <DIR>  <---- contans dsl
backup.tar.gz              <-- your backed up settings
icewm.dsl                   <-- this is where you put extentions                  
rox.dsl
firefox.uci

then u use loadlin to start DSL.
now when you are i n DSL if you look at /cdrom you will see the /cdrom == the C: drive.
with "the root of your boot" i mean in your case C:

There i am again,

I downloaded icewm-1.2.16.tar.gz (it's in my /ramdisk/home/dsl directory). When i try to unpack it (in emelfm) nothing happens.
How do i unpack it?
Where should i unpack it?
How should  i install it (how do i get an file with the extension .dsl?)


By the way: my "c:" looks like this (your quiet right)

boot/
dos/
knoppix/
lost+found/
optional/
autoexec.bat
nackup.tar.gz
boot.cat
boot.msg
bootlog.prv
bootlog.txt
command.com
config.ini
config.sys
f2
f3
german.kbd
icewm-1.2.16.tar.gz
index.html
isolinux.bin
isolinux.cfg
idlinux.sys
linux.bat
linux24
loadlin.exe
loadlin.par
logo.16
minirt24.gx
msdos.sys
qa.b__
readme.txt
syslinux.cfg

(it's a bit of a mess i am afraid.. can you tell me which linuxfiles i can delete/move to a new folder/??)

i dont know what you have in /boot, it could be /isolinux that contains all:
boot.cat
boot.msg
bootlog.prv
bootlog.txt
command.com
config.ini
config.sys
f2
f3
german.kbd
index.html
isolinux.bin
isolinux.cfg
idlinux.sys

linux24
logo.16
minirt24.gx
readme.txt
syslinux.cfg

if so change your linux.bat so it uses /boot/isolinux etc
and remove then from c:\ (but only after you verify it works)

if think you have the wrong icewm. do not download from icewm.org. icewm-1.2.16.tar.gz should be icewm.dsl
download from:Damn Small Linux myDSL Extensions
you can find many more usefull extensions there
if you do not put them in c:\ then you can "install" them temporary.
use emelfm select the *.dsl press myDSL button
