off your top level directory ?
Then it should automount.. |

That's in the CD. Not everyone is going to know how to do that.
Anyway, I place the little applications such as dock apps in the root
of the CD, and the big applications such as abiword, Mozilla Firefox
Opera 6.12 and Gimp 1.2 in /optional
Then, none of the big apps will automatically load. I have to use the MyDSL
Click and Load GUI, or (in a root rxvt) emelfm to load them.
The little dock apps load on bootup, I don't need to do anything but
start them via the Menu:
| Code Sample | [submenu] (Desktop) {}
[submenu] (Dock Apps) {}
[exec] (Clock - Date) {/usr/bin/wmclock}
[exec] (Calculator) {/usr/bin/wmcalc}
[exec] (Dialup) {/usr/bin/wmppp}
[exec] (Moonclock) {/usr/X11R6/bin/wmMoonClock -lat 30.15 -lon 96.4 -bc tan -lc black -dc red}
[exec] (Pinboard) {/usr/bin/wmpinboard -w}
[exec] (Weather - On) {/usr/bin/wmweather+ -c /home/dsl/weather.cfg}
[exec] (Weather - Off) {killall wmweather+}
[exec] (Memory) {asmem -withdrawn -bg black -fg white}
[exec] (CPU Load) {wmcpuload}
[exec] (Mount) {mount.app}
[exec] (Audio) {wmix}
[exec] (Network) {wmnet -w}
[exec] (Close All) {/home/dsl/dockappclose}
[end]
[exec] (Full Enhanced Desktop) {enhance &>/dev/null}
[exec] (Icons Only) {xtdesk}
[exec] (No Icons) {killall -9 xtdesk}
[config] (Configuration)
[submenu] (Styles) {}
[stylesdir] (/usr/share/fluxbox/styles)
[stylesdir] (~/.fluxbox/styles)
[end] |

This is a modified menu, if you add something like this to your fluxbox menu,
be sure and have an entry in your filetool.lst to save it to your backup/restore file:
| Code Sample | | home/dsl/.fluxbox |
The little file that closes all the dock apps, shown in the menu sample above, is
given here:
| Code Sample | #!/bin/bash
#
# dockappclose, version 0.1
# file location, /home/dsl/.fluxbox/dockappclose
# Close all open Dock Apps.
# For Rapidweather Remaster of DSL Linux.
# Accessed via menu item:
# Menu - > Apps - > Dock Apps - > Close All.
# kill any of these, open or not.
killall wmcpuload >/dev/null 2>&1
killall asmem >/dev/null 2>&1
killall mount.app >/dev/null 2>&1
killall wmclock >/dev/null 2>&1
killall wmMoonClock >/dev/null 2>&1
killall wmppp >/dev/null 2>&1
killall wmpinboard >/dev/null 2>&1
killall wmnet >/dev/null 2>&1
killall wmix >/dev/null 2>&1
killall wmweather+ >/dev/null 2>&1
killall wmcalc >/dev/null 2>&1
# now that all Dock Apps are closed, print this:
echo " All Dock Apps have been closed ."
# end dockappclose
exit 0

I've used it for a while, and it helps when opening just the dock apps I want
rather than the default "enhance ones".
