newbie warning(!)
OK so I have crammed as much as possible about DSL as I can into my brain over the past 2 days (from just reading no actual hands on experience).
I want to setup a CF DSL Frugal install via IDE (using a CF>IDE adapter). I understand that I need to setup two partitions on the CF(hda) which should be hda1 (the actual DSL OS) and hda2 (settings)
Now as I understand it frugal will write all my settings to the hda2 upon shutdown thus extending the life of my CF. (please correct me if I am mis informed)
I read through the Frugal Install HowTo PDF and had a question about the section on "boot options".
I saw "toram" in the screenshot and from what I've read this is a good idea on > 128MB ram. (loading all the system files into memory and running it from there).
Basically I want to know if there is a place that lists all the boot options and what purpose they serve? If I could set it up to ensure the write life of my CF would be extended I would be sold on DSL!
Thanks in advance for any help or links you can offer!
