Integrating dsl for newbie

#1 Post by nex92 » Sun Mar 18, 2007 2:16 pm

Hello everyone

I'm quite a newbie in customizing UBCD and I'm facing some difficulties that the posts I've read did not answer. I've downloaded the latest 4.0 version and I'm trying to integrate dsl on it. The problem is that I did not manage to find information that speaks to me! Usually, tutorials refer to a cdshell.ini file that I don't have (yes, I did unzipped the .iso file). I've also found that I should "put everything" from my distro to the root of UBCD. I guess it is the unzipped .iso that I should copy (then replacing the ones from UBCD).
Has anyone a "dsl integration for dummies" post? I would appreciate much.
Appart form that, thanks a lot to all contributors as UBCD is a great tool (even without my dsl!).

Thanks very much to you, Victor Chew. This looks exactly what I was looking for : short and simple! I gonna give it a try, but I'm very confident.

I followed the HOWTO instructions (which were clear and simple, BTW!) but I'm getting the following error:

Can't find KNOPPIX filesystem, sorry.

I can successfully boot into two of the three Linux distros (The Tom one doesn't boot) so I believe my UBCD build is good. Has anyone seen this? Oh, I'm doing this from USB, too...

My guess is you missed out this step:
copy "c:\dsl\KNOPPIX" to c:\ubcd

Nope, nothing that easy. I'll go through the instructions again, but there's not too much to them...
