USB booting :: Help installing to USB drive

When I try to install to a flash drive, it comes up with an error saying "Error mounting USB device"

What should I do/do differently?

First mount the usb device using

# mkdir /mnt/USB
# mount -t auto /dev/sda /mnt/USB

(depending on your device it may be sda1 or 2 etc)

then you can
# cd /mnt/USB

and
#mount -t iso9660 dsl-1.5..iso /mnt/USB -o loop

to mount DSL via local loopback if enabled

hope i've helped

disregard the last part I was assuming that DSL could be installed directly onto a USB drive but apparently not?

(Im visiting for the first time - guess I should keep quiet and learn...!)

Thank you, that worked perfectly.

HI, I hane DSL v1.2.1 ani it work´s NOT.

The problem is in mount -t auto .......
DSL writes : ilegal format........ I think.
