1.5 has a /usr/sbin/frugal_install.sh script to use when you are doing your frugal install. Works great for me so far.

Yes: it works great but this script installs Lilo... and then you cannot modify lilo.conf so if you have a windows partition you can'use that.
Follow the steps I wrote to make a frugal installation with lilo and then change the bootloader to GRUB. It's the only way I've found to use DSL (in frugal installation) and windows.

However, If you have only a S.O. on your machine, the standard script (frugal_install.sh) is perfect for your scope.

Sorry, I mistakenly typed /usr/sbin/frugal_install.sh. I meant /usr/sbin/frugal_grub.sh :)

...are you sure...
strange... I downloaded that script just beacuse I did't find it (booting with live cd DSL-1.5...)
patience: the important is "to solve the problems" not "how"....  :D
