hansolo makes a good observation in USB booting posts.

DSL for USB flash drives, a zip file, ( or gzip, rar, whatever ),
  with BOTH a script file installer & a DOS batch file installer
  that would format, copy, & syslinux the USB complete.
Maybe even some instructions for WinBLOWS idiots like myself
  who can barely operate in Linux at all.
Seems Winnies being introduced to DSL-Linux is pretty important
  & should be painless, so as to convert as many as possable.
Wacha think guys?

We may not have giant bolded links on the front webpage but we do have the files, setup scripts, and documentation available.

It still seems a lot easer than answering a lot of Qs from burfs like me.
The instructions aren`t newbie frendly, & after all isn`t every WinDoze only geek nothin more than a newbie?
DSL IS the perfect bait to get folks to jump ship!

! Not simple enough? I wrote the USB key in Windows DOC and I know its simple. Like four trillion people have been successful with it! And SU wrote the other doc on geometry...it should be pretty straightforward as well.
