USB booting :: Knoppix file for boot and embedded
Actually I've just found a thread here that suggests you can boot from a pendrive as long as dsl-embedded is working on it. That's not how I did it though.
My steps were:
1. Unzip the Embedded zip file into the pendrive. Rename minirt24.gz to minirt241.gz.
2. Boot Livecd and choose install to pendrive USB-HDD from the menu. When propmpted, pick Update so that files are overwritten but the drive is not reformatted.
3. Edit dsl-windows.dat and dsl-linux.sh to change references to minirt24.gz to minirt241.gz.
4. I then used these instructions to ensure the correct syslinux.cfg is read each time.
I'm sure there are better ways and I still haven't sorted out how to share files between embedded and bootable but hope this helps.
