Another question!

How can I get a clean desktop (without enhacement or icons) running DSL in Windows from a usb-drive? Thanks in advance!

Have fun (but stay out of trouble),

You can add noicons to dsl-windows.bat, dsl-linux.sh and to syslinux.cfg
That should handle all three types of boots, Qemu Windows, Qemu Linux, and BIOS.

Or change it in one place.
/home/dsl/..xinitrc and delete or commnet out these lines:

if egrep -qv noicons /proc/cmdline 2>/dev/null; then
 enhance &>/dev/null &
fi

Then the backup/restore will retain this change.

Hi again!

Well the last option (changing .xinitrc) doesn't work with qemu in windows. So I guess I have to try the other option.

Have fun guys,

Hi again!

Well now I have tried to add the noicons option to dsl-windows.bat and it only results in that qemu won't start. I have tried to put the noicons option in different places but the result is the same. Any suggestion in the matter would be much appreciated.

Thanks and keep on having fun,
meo
