Working on it now.  Question can't I clone my now working dsl on the one flash drive using the "dd" command then put that clone on the 4GIger and just partition the rest of it whatever way or partition I want even multiple?

How can I do that and copy the boot sector of the working flash drive?

Just curious to see if it will work.  I am also testing the release candidate as well.

Release Candidate 4.0rc1 is DaBomb.

Works 100% on the D820.  And I noticed the linuxrc script is the same as before we made any changes to it and that script is working 100% on my D820.

So it is something in Release Candidate that has more support for newer devices is why it boots up fine now?

Thanks for all the help.  Now I have two great working DSL's

I like Release Candidate1 version 4.0 becaus it supports my broadcom ethernet device.

No support yet I see for the wireless ipw3945 but I have it working on Fedora 7 using the iwl3945 built in kernel module but have to use a Network Manager to connect.

ndsiwrapper in fedora froze my ipw3945 wireless but I am wondering if it might work in this dsl version?  Will have to give it a try.

You think that I can get a working kernel driver for the ipw3945?  I will  have to search your forums for that.

Thanks for the marvelous tech support robert.

For anyone who has a D600 or D800 series Dell Latitude Laptop  this thread will be great  for them!!
