To any of the DSL admins, please change:

===How Do I Install to a USB Pendrive?===
In the Fluxbox menu, go Apps >> Tools >> Install to USB Pendrive and choose either USB-ZIP emulation or USB-HDD emulation, depending on what is supported by your computer's bios.

over to:

===How Do I Install to a USB Pendrive?===
First, boot up your computer from the DSL livecd. It is not possible to do a USB install from a running USB or DSL Embedded system.

In the Fluxbox menu, go Apps >> Tools >> Install to USB Pendrive and choose either USB-ZIP emulation or USB-HDD emulation, depending on what is supported by your computer's bios.

Thanks

You can use the talk/discussion page for locked pages to suggest additions.

I was tired of the FAQ page getting vandalized, so it got locked.

Might open it up again eventually.

They say if you play a Microsoft CD backwards, you hear satanic messages. That's nothing, cause if you play it forwards, it installs Windows.

Looking at the history of the FAQ page it was only vandalized by one person and only one revert was required. Before it was locked there were a number of edits from people who aren't sysops/admins which improved the FAQ page.

I would ask you to please reconsider having the FAQ page locked.

Didn't I already say that I was? :P
