Damn Small Linux has recently added some excellent customization features. For example, packages
you download, desktop settings, and configuration information can be saved across reboots.
By creating a list of files and packages you want to save, those files and packages can be saved to a
backup file that is stored on your hard disk or any removable medium. The next time you reboot,
you can tell Damn Small Linux where to find that backup file and all settings and applications will
be inserted into your current Damn Small Linux session.
