Other Help Topics :: HOWTO Remaster DSL From An Existing HD Install
ok...sorry, i'm a dummy...i see the version i am using is 1.0.1 and the remastering is tested on 0.8.2...downloading now...still, it seems if the xinit prob can be solved then 1.0.1 remastering cant be too far away...will tinker with it anyway and post any progress
Haven't had much time lately to play with DSL, but I am now downloading both the isolinux and syslinux versions of v1.1.
After I get a chance to try out some installs and remastering with both of them, I'll be updating this HowTo. 
hmmm...actually i double checked the procedure with remastering 0.8.2 and i get them same result with an xinit error....hmmm....
ok...got it...it was a permissions prob w using emelfm...will try 1.0.1 again in the next days
Oh yes. Copying files in emelfm as root gives the copied files root ownership, meaning that user "dsl" can't access them. 
Don't feel so bad. I learned that one myself the hard way.
