still having trouble building my own S02dsl-config.dsl
/ramdisk/etc/rc5.d did not exist.
so i used emelfm to create the /ramdisk subdirs, make the copy, and rename it.
then i edited it with scite. when i tried to save, scite wont let me do.
so i saved as /ramdisk/etc/rc5.d/S03dsl-config , deleted the original copy and renamed S03dsl-config to S02dsl-config.
then i went to the process of creating the .dsl :
opening an xterm, going to /mnt/hda2 (my windows me partition to be able to get the result back and burn it to the cd)
typing  tar -czvf S02dsl-config.dsl /ramdisk/etc/rc5.d/S02dsl-config
all seems to have worked fine...
rebooting
burning the file to the root of the cd with nero
rebooting
dsl lang=fr mydsl_dir=(/jeux)
(my .dsl games are in a dir called "jeux" inside the optional folder of the cd)
and nothing seems to be loaded

what did i do that made things go wrong ?

I dont think it should be part of the extension repositoty.
if it is a usefull patch it could be part of a next version of DSL.
until this hapens i will use the patch to enable me to have multiple DSL configurations on one partition ( i use poor man's install and grub bootloader)

i agree that such a useful patch should be added to next version, but it could be useful as a .dsl while waiting for it to be available...

i've read about 0.8.1 in another topic so the waiting may be short...
