HD Install :: Full install on USB



Quote (^thehatsrule^ @ April 04 2007,01:05)
Well... you'll probably want to use the USB-ZIP or USB-HDD script since those will set up your usb drive's geometry/partitions for you, instead of the regular frugal script.

Thanks. I assume those are available on the CD?
yes
hi, I tried to find those scripts on the drive. I was unsuccessfull. I'm probably missing something obvious.

I even did a find . | grep USB but nothing came up.

I booted the CD and looked for it. not even anything on doing a frugal install.

On the drive or in the menu? Where did you look? Run DSL from CD. In fluxbox or jwm, right click to get a menu. Scroll to tools - look for "For USB-ZIP Pendrive" or "For USB-HDD Pendrive." Select one of those. They're in every menu of every DSL ISO I've used.

Or from command prompt, take your pick:
sudo pendrive_usbzip.sh
sudo pendrive_usbhdd.sh
