DSL Ideas and Suggestions :: Loading Large extensions

Hi friedgold,

this is exactly what I need for my old Mininotebook with 128 MB ram. How can I implement this in some way on my actual frugal installation?

In my understanding all changes go away after reboot....

Update: I just found out that I cannot even change this file :-( it is readonly...

Br,

OK kids, check this out.......

I've really wanted to try friedgold's hack and I believe I have a new DSL X ram record!

Specs.
Winbook XP5
120mhz
13mb ram + swap

Install
Frugal Grub (of course)

xvesa 640x480 24bit

I actually booted to the full default DSL desktop with icons and dockapps! Was it fast? No, it was slow but once there it worked! With some of the low ram options and noicons it's still slow but functional. It was fun to try! I have some pics but no place to host them at the moment.
