myDSL Extensions (deprecated) :: MyDSL Maker

FYI,

If you encounter a PC with little RAM and your customized DSL livecd will not work because the automatically booted extensions take up too much ram, try booting with this command:

dsl base

It should skip all of the myDSL extras for this boot only.

and for REALLY low RAM computers, type:

dsl xsetup noicons base

and choose Xvesa 800x600 16bit color

The link does not work on the first page.

Any ideas.

Hmm, the link really does not work. Where is the DSLMaker? It'd be a pity to loose it.

it seems that www.nolifeline.com does not exist anymore...
is that good (updating) or bad (game over) ? only Fordi can tell...

Softgun: My name is Bryan. Note the 'y'. Seems a silly thing to be pickish about, but I am. Sorry. ^_^

UCI is short for Unifide Compressed ISO. DSL handles these naitively, and if there's a choice between them and something else, use it.

On that note: you do take a performance hit for using ucis. dsls and .tar.gzs run from RAM. This means they're farking fast. .ucis are read directly from the CD in compressed-block chunks. This means that while they occupy only a loop-info pointer in kernel memory, they also run slowly. Think CD access+read+decompression. On that note, it's not near slow enough to irritate anyone on a high-end machine, and low-end machines have little enough ram that they have little choice if they want to install OpenOffice or the Java runtime.
