Very nice! I'm fairly new to Linux (but not computers) and came upon DSL which fit the bill for a small OS. Now, the quesiton.

How do I get it to install onto a USB flash drive?

I have a 128MB USB 2.0 drive which I thought would be perfect to partition in two: One side for DSL, the other for random data that I seem to think is important.

Can I just drag n' drop the .iso file onto the flash drive and it will run? Anywhoo, thanks in advance!

Answer: It is very easy, if you are running from liveCD of v0.8.x, look here:
