I did a frugal install to hda1. I pointed home and opt to hda2. I also pointed restore and myDSL to hda2 during the install process. After the installation I downloaded three apps with the download directory of /opt. All three installed properly and I had a myDSL sub menu with all three apps within. I then executed emelfm and moved festival from /opt to /mnt/hda2 which should put it at the root of hda2 in my understanding. Then I rebooted.
I watched the boot up process and when the checking for myDSL apps line appeared, no apps were found. When the boot up process completed, abiword and imagemagick both had icons on the desk top and worked properly. There was no mydsl submenu. I checked /mnt/hda2 with emelfm and festival was still there. I highlighted /mnt/hda2/festival and clicked the emelfm mydsl button and it installed festival. Also the myDSL sub menu appeared with the two festival entries within.

How did you "point" the restore and mydsl to hda2 during the frugal install?
It sounds to me like your persistant /opt and /home is working OK,
( explains why you have icons on desktop, and apps in /opt )
.. but your mydsl is non-functional ..
Looking at your quote, did you use myDSL=hda2 ?
That would be a typo, and cause it to fail..
restore=hda2 mydsl=hda2 home=hda2 opt=hda2
should be what you used during the frugal install ..
Just my thoughts..
