If you create a folder /mnt/hda7/mydsl you will not need a boot code, dsl should find the folder on its own

folder exists, but not created by me, with one file "MyDSL" (26 bytes). i'll try to manually create.

just to recap, i boot dsl from dos using linld.com. this is my .cl file (cheatcodes):

ramdisk_size=100000
lang=us
dsl mydsl=hda7
restore=hda7
acpi=off
vga=791
frugal
dma


N.B.: "dsl mydsl=hda7" - because i read somewhere that this fails if "dsl" is missing before "mydsl".

rebooting back to dsl now.

You don't need that extra dsl you do need to have the correct permission on the mydsl folder. It should be dsl.staff

My guess is that there could be problems due to the filesystem (i.e. fat*) not supporting *nix type permissions.
