My mouse isn't recognized with 2.4rc2.
It was with 2.3 and 2.2
I play with live CD at this step.

Trying to run DSL-N on my laptop equiped with DSL 2.4 RC2 (frugal installed with grub boot loader from live cd through the usual DLS install option), I observe that I don't get the prompt of DSL-N. Insted of that, it runs grub, it then looks for the dsl image on the cd, and seems to load kernel 2.4.26 (very strange to me, since DSL-N have kernel 2.16.x). This also happens with DSL 2.4 RC1. It is then impossible to have DSL-N prompt.

I would not suggest to try to run both DSL and DSL-N on the same system.
They are kissing cousins and without boot options both look for a KNOPPIX file, both will look for mydsl directory to autoload extensions and/or backup.tar.gz for automatic restoration. I suppose by using boot options bootfrom base and norestore or specifying a specific restore location,e.g., restore=hdxy mydsl=hdyx etc, one could carefully keep the cousins from kissing!

roberts,
thanks a lot for your advice. I tried DSL-N on another machine and got the DSL-N prompt.
However, I have a question: I did a frugal install of the version 2.4 RC1 and then I replaced it with a frugal install of the version 2.4 RC2 on the same machine; in both cases, I choose the grub bootloader. But in both cases, when I put in my machine a cd with another version of DSL burned on it, I don't get the DSL prompt anymore (I don't have another distro in order to make a comparison; it should be done with another live-cd). Instead of that, my machine boots directly with grub runing and bringing me to the grub prompt, which is (or looks quiet like) the grub prompt I set up for my previous frugal install. Is this a new boot procedure? And if yes, what is the idea/concept/purpose?
yours
