USB booting :: DSL on Kingston USB Drive

I downloaded dsl.iso and tried almost everything to run it from USB FLash drive, but no success. I am going crazy. I am new at this, I have to add.
I have Kingston Data Traveler 2.0 256 MB.
Can someone explain me how to put dsl on USB drive and boot i?
FIrst of all, is it even possible?
I tried something else. I burned the ISO to a CD, but it wouldn't boot from it either. I don't know what's the problem. I have to add that, at the moment, I don't have Linux installed on my system.

I really want this, so if anyone of you knows how I could do it, please help me.

Thanks in advance

I have it in a Kingston Data Traveler 2.0 1GB and works fine.
Quickly:
Burn the iso in a CD.
Boot from the CD. If your PC does not boot from the CD, you have to download first the image from a diskette to boot the CD, after the download and write it in a diskette you can boot the CD.
In the desktop open a terminal and with cfdisk you have to crate 2 partitions, one for the instalation and the other for swap (and if you want another for your data).
Go to app, tools and install to USB pendrive.
That's all
Better if you raed before all the lot of documentation in wiki or in this forum with the search machine.

Have fun!

Thanks a lot for your reply. I will try it later. I hope that will work. I already have dsl burned on CD, but the computer wouldn't boot from the CD. I will try with floppy image.

Thanks man.

I would not place swap on a pendrive.
Your pendrive won't last long with such use.

Hey, I can't open the image file "bootfloppy-usb.img". I tried WinImage, but it crashes, and other won't open it. What software can extract this file?
