Hey I have an old toshiba 480 CDT with 32MB RAM and 233MHz processor, 2MB Graphics.
I was trying to test boot DSL from CD, prior to installing onto HD. Works fine until it states:
'Processor 0 is Mobile Pentium MMX 233MHz'
it then hangs.
I have tried booting 'dsl vga=normal' and 'dsl xsetup', but it hangs at the same place.
Any suggestions?

[EDIT]Sorry I am using latest version (0.9.1)

Try:

dsl mem=32M

or

dsl mem=16M

Make sure that your "M" at the end is uppercase (IE: a capital letter)

I tried this too, but my Toshiba Tecra 8000 just hangs after:
'Processor 0 is Prentium II (Deschutes) 299MHz, 512 KB Cache'

Any ideas?
