Is there some way to store (and automatically apply) all the responses to the various prompts DSL gives when booting? I've got a frugal install, which works fine, but it's a nuisance to have to answer 6 or 8 different prompts every time the system boots.

Thanks!

I have no prompts on my frugal system. Do you have "xsetup" in your boot string? (lilo.conf or menu.lst in /cdrom)
If so, remove that word and backup /home/dsl/.xserverrc
