Other Help Topics :: howto: save installed packages on USB



He means, type this in at the initial boot prompt:

dsl nodhcp

Okay that is working. Thx

One thing though, etc/resolv.conf still puts the 206.13.28.12 address in every reboot, why is that ???

that is the default. burned into to cd-image.
change your code to:
Code Sample
echo "nameserver 195.121.1.34" > /etc/resolv.conf
echo "nameserver 195.121.1.66" >> /etc/resolv.conf
echo "nameserver 192.168.1.1" >> /etc/resolv.conf
Note that the first line has 1 > all others have 2 >
1 > means start in a new file
2 > means append to a file

ps. did you change the last post?

Ah thx man.


Yes I changed the last post, I tried a couple of times entering dsl nodhcp but I didn't work. Suddenly it does. Maybe I was doing something wrong over and over again. How can you keep strubbling with something that easy, sjees

Well, it works now. :)

sorry, but i'm a noobie here and kinda having some trouble understanding. so just to summarize all this (and PLS correct me if i'm wrong):
- to save settings we need to save the location of the files (that were modifed i assume) in the filetool.lst file and save that on the medium that we would like to read it from (in my case: my hdd)

- then every time u boot, u just type
Code Sample
dsl restore=hda1 mydsl=hda1
when ur booting

but as far as the internet, i have no idea where u guys are putting in all those cmds and what they are for.

for mines i was told to save a bunch of files within /usr/local/bin (obviously, i can't do that cuz it's running off the cd and is read-only) and just put in our username and id in it
