For the user=name boot option, can you also get it to load extensions from a \name directory too for maximum configurability (is that a real word?)

i.e. mydsl user=blackhathacker

will load all extensions from \mydsl then all extensions from \blackhathacker.

This would allow enormous customization at boot time. On the same CD you could have users such as /repairdisk /wordprocessing /developement /server etc etc

I already support named mydsl directories, so you should be able to use user=blackhathacker mydsl=hda2/blackhathacker or ...

user=blackhathacker mydsl=hda2/office

user=kids mydsl=hda2/games

or many other combinations.

Note: The name option is something comming in v4.1

I have had a problem running dsl-4.0 on my new laptop with an AMD dual-core processor.  During the start cycle two penguins pop-up instead of one and whenever the system starts it shows 100 percent cpu usage.  Have the same behavior with earlier versions.  I know this issue was sort of roundly dismissed earlier, but if I run dsl-n there is no problem.

Two penguins is normal for a dual processor system.
Does booting failsafe help?
At the first boot prompt type failsafe.

boot: failsafe

On the otherhand... It may be because your computer is so new and so fast that it requires DMA. Try this

boot: dsl dma
