Hehe, thanks... Anyhow, I have tried both the USB-HDD and USB-ZIP scripts in the Apps>tools> menu...Neither worked. Personally, I think that Attaches just arent bootable. Anyhow, how do you do a Frugal install on the USB? Or was that what you just said? Again, muy gracias...(I think thats how you say it?)

I use DSL, SLAX, and Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon. Sometimes XP, and hopefully NEVER Vista.

Sorry, I may have misread your first post, a USB install is a frugal install, I thought you tried a standard HDD-install, not the USB-HDD-install.

I think we need to start from the begining.  If you haven't already, then boot the LiveCD  and go to Apps --> Tools --> Install to USB Pendrive --> For USB-HDD Pendrive.  Once the install is finished restart your box and go into your BIOS. Set your first boot device as USB-HDD.  Restart.  If the pendrive doesn't boot, then boot the LiveCD again.  Make a boot floppy using these instructions.  Restart and boot back into your BIOS.  Set the first boot device as the floppy drive and restart.  If this doesn't work let me know.

P.S.  It's muchos gracias (many thanks).

Damn, I feel so stupid...I finally found the problem. Somehow, I downloaded DSL 1.2 instead of DSL 1.5...I booted 1.5, and did the HDD script. It didnt work, so i tried the ZIP script, which worked perfectly....So anyhow, thanks for the help. (i feel so stupid lol!!!! :D )
