This is a very cool idea. Thanks fordi. How difficult is it to upgrade the kernel?

While it's possible to change the kernel in dsl I'm not sure it's recommended. Rebuilding the kernel in a Knoppix-based distro can be a pain in the ar**. Also, dsl has been put together to work specifically with the supplied kernel (knoppix 2.4.26). Changing the kernel may lead to unforeseen consequences.

Debian (for eg) is very easy to upgrade official kernel images with - no rebuilding needed - try that if you want to fiddle with different kernels.

OK, maybe I'm not gettng the whole download because I'm using EI6 and it's download manager. But how do you NOT use the EI6 download manager? It does it's thing without asking.
