All you gotta do is download dsl-1.4-embedded.zip and unzip it.
Then just double click the dsl-windows.bat file and boom it will boot into DSL within windows. Thats the way I do it...  |
That's what I do too...but...I notice everyone saying to install from the DSL distro onto the pen drive...but...realy you don't have to do a thing to your pen drive but copy the files onto it and use the floppy to boot. There is barely any point in having it being bootable when 3/4 of the computers you run into can't do it, or arn't configured in the BIOS to boot from USB anyways.
Though...running DSL on windows worries me about the lifespan of my drive...the information on DSL seems to be very spread out....the wiki and the documentation pages seems to leave variouse thigns out too. Like, what is frugal?
Sorry for reving a sort of dead thread ;-)
