this also didnt work for me. i prepared my stick just the way you described it above (additional i marked the fat16 partition as a boot partition. was this maybe a mistake? after one more reboot, i couldnt access the usb-pen at all anymore. very strange. also i had very long breaks during the boot process of DSL, while the system checked the usb devices. something went wrong and i dunno what it is). the usb-install-script asked where to install DSL, which was sda1 and then the usb-pen flashed once, the terminal closed itself and was it. now i try this other tutorial ((http://damnsmalllinux.org/static/act-ST/f-17/t-3153)) but sad that it didnt work with the DSL live cd. this would have been a neat thing, but since i have no clue what it could be, i will just try another way. maybe someone can light up the dark a little bit .

/edit: i cannot even try the other installversion, because my usb-pen seems to be totally screwed up. my standard linux system wont boot anymore with the stick plugged in. with dsl the stick wont get recognized anymore, so i cannot partition it further or delete partitions or format the pen. in windows an usb-pen is recognized, but i cannot write to it. the HP-tools tells me that the stick is write-protected, when i want to format it. but there is no trigger for writeprotection on the stick. for information: its a sandisk cruzer 512mb. can someone help me in this issue? thanks
