I have a system size of paper back book. I can boot only by net, USB floppy or USB stick made to look like a floppy, ( not HDD) or internal 512meg FLASH IDE hard drive.
I have puppy super floppy that boots to ram. Anyone write a program to run on puppy linux to take DSL files from 2nd USB stick and install in 512meg FLASH drive?????????????????

if you use the bootfloppy.img, and you have the boot files on your usb-drive, then you can boot dsl from floppy.

from thereon, you can try the normal install options (frugal or hdd).


(personally though, i'd use freedos & loadlin :
