Hi,

I m quietly new to DSL.

Just installed on HD.

How can I save my network and keyboard setting to have them restored next time I boot my DSL?

It was not so trivial like in Knoppix!

Thankx

Hi,

thankx for your kind reply.

The first link in your post, the one to the user guide, was obviously read before posting.

That is related with the CDROM run of DSL.

It do not work for me in HD install!!

It do not save language

It do not save network

It do just save desktop style

For me THIS IS A BUG!!!

After I have playrf a lot with restore, both under cdrom boot and hdinstall boot, I think the procedure is broken!

Yes, it restore the file in the default directory, then it do not execute the restored version of bootlocal.sh and it do not read the restored .x* files!

This is for SURE!!!

Prolly, on here, NO ONE do ever use this restore function, becouse it is buggy like hell!!!

Someone have to report this to the developer, if he do not already read this forum.
