O.K, I'm talking through my ....."hat" here,
but you seem to be booting into a Grub
bootloader shell, do you have another unix
OS on the machine?
Perhaps this is left over from an old installation,
I would have thought that the LILO bootloader
which runs in Frugal install would have overwritten
the MBR.
You can perhaps still boot your DSL, if you Google
search for the "GRUB manual", it will tell you how to directly
boot an OS from the shell.
Perhaps someone else who uses grub shell on a regular
basis would like to chime in here.
I've just done a Frugal on an old machine to see what Frugal
was about, because I couldn't find out enough about it with searches.
I was unaware that Lilo would overwrite MBR, and then couldn't
get to pre-existing Dos and DSL HD installs.
Tried modifying RS's frugal_instal.sh to include these, but
so far have trouble including DSL HD install on hda5.
Maybe better to install Grub in DSL HD installed system
and use Grub to boot the others.
Anyhoo, thats the only idea that springs to mind right now
- good luck with it!
