DonttPanic: I remaster all the time the way you did with WinISO. I put all the .dsl files I want available in the optional directory, even .ci files. The directory gets scanned at boot, but they don't load. Then I load up from the mydsl menu whichever program I want to run. Any dsl you want loaded everytime at boot, like firefox, you can put in the top level directory. If you are using WinISO, you want to click on the CDROM icon or the title next to it and that selects the top-level, then drop your stuff on the right-hand pane. When you download stuff from the repository prior to building a new ISO w/ WinISO, go ahead and put the .dsls in a directory called optional. Then when you edit the dsl0.7.3.iso, you can just add a directory rather than a file or files at a time. This also gets around the problem of not being able to create a new directory in the WinISO program.
Another problem w/ this program is that occasionally when you make an incremental change to your ISO file, like adding or removing some .dsl after testing, when you try to save, the entire program will lock up, give an error or crash. I get around this by using save as and incrementing my ISO file by a number or letter. e.g. DSL073-B1.ISO, DSL073-B2.ISO I keep the last 2-3 ISOs in my f:\iso\damnsmall directory and just delete a few every now and then. Welcome to the remastering world. I hate downloading stuff over and over again.
