DSL is back? Question
#1
Hey DSL community, I've recently looked at the DSL page @ Distrowatch.org I like to go on there once in awhile to see what is new since i love to tinker. I've used DSL before the first versions back in 2010 or so I believe and i think DSL stopped uploading updates in 2008 I believe correct me if I'm wrong. So the project was already abandoned when i tried it but I didn't think it was bad so when i seen you guys are bringing the project back i instantly want to give it a go but I have a question before I try and boot, does DSL support safe boot out of the box? or am I going to have to configure it? I want to install it on a old laptop I have its one of my tinker laptops but I'd love to tinker around with it break it/fix it repeat. Maybe I'll come across some bugs that need to be fixed if so ill come back and let you fellas know.

Appreciate the spirit of bug-finding. Welcome. Start at the home page for some background and links.

Jump-in. Runs live. Separate images for CD or USB. No UEFI boot this rev (read: use legacy boot in bios if not set). Images necessarily (to fit on CD) small. If you choose to install, you can add things back in one menu choice (DSL File Restore). If you have questions, keep them coming.
