I downloaded dsl-1.1.iso and dsl-embedded.zip. What do I do to put DSL on my USB drive? I have a 512 megabyte USB drive and I want to be able to boot from the USB drive into DSL as well as running DSL from within Windows on the USB drive.

Also, I have a 128 megabyte SD card; anyone know if I can put DSL on that as well?

Hello LoganK!

The only thing you have to do is to unzip dsl-embedded onto your usb-drive and you are good to go (I usually format my drive with fat32 first). There will appear a readme file on the drive telling you what to do next. Yes it might be possible to use a sd-card too if you have a separate usb-adapter for it.

Have fun,
meo

Ok, one more thing. When I run the dsl-windows.bat file it says "could not find qemu\qemu.exe". I saw the folder and the file and they're on the drive, so I'm wondering what to do.

For the SD, I have a built-in SD reader in my laptop.
