[edit] Usefullness

Can anything more than a command prompt be run? Is there any real use to this? RealG187 18:45, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

You can run a number of command-line programs such as Retawq, vi, Hack and other games. Basically, you can do a number of things you could do on any PC linux distro using a command line. 142.59.173.240 04:24, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

I noticed this is categorized under replacement firmware, this is incorrect, it's software only, although modified firmware is oftend used to to run unsigned applications on the DS. I'm new to this so I thought I'd let someone else do the modifications 24.68.85.124 03:59, 16 March 2007 (UTC)adamk

Removed. DSLinux is certainly not a firmware replacement, and no firmware hacking is necessary to run it. That's one method, but there are many others. 142.59.173.240 04:26, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Article rating

I am changing this article from stub-class to start-class. It has a good deal of information, but still needs expanding and cleanup. Gh5046 00:50, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Redirect

DSLinux and Damn Small Linux Are The Same. Please redirect.

The Damn Small Linux project refers to itself as "Damn Small Linux" or "DSL." DSLinux is for the Nintendo DS port. Also, please sign your edits in the discussion section of articles. Gh5046 16:57, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Who are you talking to, exactly? Complex-Algorithm 20:08, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

I didn't notice you were the one who made the original post, but it's still bad form to remove comments that have been responded to. If you want to remove the entire "Redirect" discussion, go for it. But, if you just remove a portion of the discussion it gets confusing. Gh5046 20:44, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
