|  | Posted: Oct. 10 2005,01:08 |  |  I have been using this post as a guide to doing exactly what the original poster wanted to do with DSL and a USB Pen-drive. I too want to be able to use DSL on a pen-drive in multiple OS's like Linux and Windows. After playing with and re-trying per the intructions (and getting the "Geometry" finsihed) I am stuck on this last part.
 
 As a regular user (not root) I get this messege when trying to activate the 5way script, forgive me but I ahve to type this out as I seem not to be able to copy and paste it here (using the live-cd, not sure if it's the porblem)
 
 dsl@box:~/5-way$ 5way_install.sh
 
 DSL USB pendrive 5-way installation utility.
 No responisibility for the data lost or hardware damage!
 Your pendrive must have... etc etc (the USB Geometry is set)
 DO NOT have your pendrive mounted.
 Ready to proceed (y/..)? y
 Standby fetchin the embedded zip file...
 wget:dsl-embedded.zip:Permission denied
 Error while trying to fetch the embedded zip file.
 Script is terminating...
 dsl@box:~/5-way$
 
 When I try to do the same thing as root I get this:
 
 root@box:~/5-way# 5way_install.sh
 bash: 5way_install.sh: command not found
 root@box:~/5way#
 
 Also just to show here is the USB Pendrive Geometry. My pendrive was not what was suggested so I changed it, I now have this:
 
 Disk /dev/sda: 982 cylinders, 16 heads, 32 sectors/track
 Old situation:
 Units = cylinders of 262144 bytes, blocks of 1024 bytes, counting from 0
 
 Device  Boot  Start        End     #cyls          #blocks      Id      System
 /dev/sda1                0+      980      981-          251135+    83     Linux
 /dev/sda2                0         -          0               0                0        Empty
 /dev/sda3               SAME THING
 /dev/sda4                SAME THING
 
 NOTE: I am using the Kingston 256mb Pendrive
 Thank you for reading I really appreciate the help... I know I am so close to actually getting this to work!
