Are there plans to incorporate the 'Persistant Home' scripts in the future?

Tried this latest iso and it fails on loading saying "Couldn't start kdeinit. Check your installation".

Then it goes on to say "Not enough memory to start kde! (At least 82 mb required.)
Using TWM instead.

I have 386mb ram in my Abit bp6 and also on booting it picks up my linix swap.

you may have to use MEM=386M at the boot prompt.. did the previous versions work?

It sure would be nice to know what these are

Anyone run this yet?

I downloaded and burnt it on the 20th and started it on a Compaq iPaq (the desktop not the handheld, how cool with the inverse be though!).

Whereas previous versions ran no problems this chucked a number of wobblies whilst starting up (albeit it did finally work fine). They were:

Error: only one processor.
Invalid mode selected -> Press [Space] to ignore.

Any ideas on what has changed to cause this (specifically the processor error)?

I've seen that on most new Dell systems. I think it is using an smp kernel and aggressively looking for a 2nd cpu.
