I have the ISO for DSL in a usb drive attached to my computer but i dont know how to boot straight from the drive in windows. Do i need any programs or anything, or do i have to format my usb device somehow? any help is greatly appreciated go to your bios and make it boot from usb 1st priorty and since all bios are different use a little common sense when trying to find out how to do it and it might take some timeBut first you have to burn the iso to a CD, boot from the CD and make a frugal instalation in the USB drive.
Then you can boot DSL from de USB drive selecting from the bios the USB boot.
Another possibility is download the embeded version, and copy all the files in the USB drive. Then in Windows go to USB drive and execute the windows-dsl.bat, so you have a windows with the DSL in it.

Not necessarily so,. He could just copy the iso to the usb disk, boot from a floppy with the option
Code Sample
