USB booting :: Installing DSL onto USB drive using windows?!
If only i knew it was that simple when i started. ;)
Did cbagger01 description work?
Thinking of getting a sony microvault USB Drive and putting DSL Linux on it.
Also once DSL is on the Pendrive how do you start from inside windows while windows is running?
Thanks
you can run embedded DSL inside windows without a USB key...
All you gotta do is download dsl-1.4-embedded.zip and unzip it.
Then just double click the dsl-windows.bat file and boom it will boot into DSL within windows. Thats the way I do it...
Thanks for the reply, run out and got a USB Drive, burnt to USB as the instructions said with the cd and am left with the following folders on the Drive, how can I get this to start in windows?
See link below for picture of folder contents -

the way you installed to the usb drive is for BOOTING the computer, if you want to run from INSIDE windows, you need to get the embeded package, unzip it, then throw that on your pendrive to take with you........just google for "run DSL from inside windows", and follow the instructions
