I have been using DSL for a while now and wanted to DSL embedded onto my flash drive (the flash drive already boots DSL), but when I run dsl-windows.bat, QEMU is unable to find the KNOPPIX filesystem. Embedded works fine on my harddrive, just not on the thumbdrive. Is this a problem with using the Native DSL?

Thanks in Advance,

Make sure there is a ~50mb KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX file that resides on your flash drive

Or this could be a problem with your flashdrive's filesystem.
(i.e. fat not being case-sensitive). You could change the start scripts and filenames to all lowercase.

The KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX file is there. This flash drive can boot the computer into DSL, but I wanted to add the embedded for use at work.

I have tried changing the case of the file in the startup script, but it doesn't change anthing.
