I agree with both of you. The availability and the way this script is used must be clearly and prominently displayed in both the index file popping up on the CD, the index page on the dsl site and in the documentation.
Instead of a flash.tar.gz i have made the firefox_plugins directory and my bookmarks.html file and copied them to the root fo the cd. Then I made a small script file and put it there too and burned it after putting a few programs from the repository - rox, skype, openoffice.uci. mplayer and mplayerplugin.
I made several directories and put in music, presentaions, web pages, pics etc and just burnt them all in :-)
Now i boot up to the usual dsl.
Then I open the file manager and in front of my chldren,friends, students, and click on flash_script (to run my script putting flash in), copy the bookmarks file to tha appopriate directory and then bsetbg -f path to a pic from a collection and magically it is all set to go.
BTW my script to copy the bookmarks.html file to the home/dsl/.mozilla/firefox/defauls.xxx fail because the xxx in defaults.xxx changes each and every time. putting in a default.* does not work :-(
Any way round this?
This may seem like too many steps to you, but in fct it is better this way as you get what you need when you need t and the basic dsl runs by defalut.
If I need open office to show a presentaion for example, I start it off!
I then tried the mkmydsl script with a cdrw and that is even better! However it does not solve the bookmarks saving thingy.
To think that I had to get to know this from the original author because it is played down so much is not funny.
It's unfair!
Was it meant to blush unseen?
