I'm Using a sandisk 128 mb usb flash drive, and when i go to bios theres "Generic Storage Device" and "Maxtor Hard Drive" (which is my external hard drive)  so i selected generic storage and it doesnt do anything it just stays on a blank screen with the blinking cursor in the upper left corner for ever

Knowing absolutely nothing about linux. (just started learning). I followed the OPs instructions and i made my MP3 player (sd card reader) boot my laptop up. Worked perfectly without any issues.

Great instructions!

If I get the error message "img file not supported by drive" in winimage when trying to write the 0.8.0.img to the mbr of my 1gb lexar flash drive, does that mean that dsl won't work on this thumb drive?

I know that this is sort of a dumb question, but I don't want to start off screwing up (there will be plenty of time for that later  :;): )  The bootusb file that I downloaded was called bootfloppy-usb.img.  Is this the right file?  because I didn't see a bootusbx.x.x.img anywhere in the download directories.

Thanks!


PS.  I'm using the OS X instal instructions on page 3, second comment. And I figure if I screw up, I can always reformat the drive and start over.
