USB booting :: RPM
Is that option included in the USB version?
If not, how can I install it?
No it's not. DSL uses the Debian package system, requiring the installation of dsl-dpkg.dsl.
If you want RPM, you can try installing from a deb package or from source, but i don't really see the point when the deb package system provides the same feature set built specifically for debian-based distros.
You can use the alien myDSL extension program to convert a *.rpm package into a *.deb package and then you can install it with
sudo su
dpkg -i name_of_file.deb
assuming that you have already "Enabled APT" from the menu.
