Hey all.  Quick warning:  I am an uber_n00b and have some probably idiotic questions to ask about my new DSL.

I recently got the DSL 2.1 embedded version and extracted it to my ScanDisk Cruzer mini 1.0GB flash drive.  It's been working great and I've managed to customize the appearance and save it (w00t) but I'm still learning.

One thing I just can't figure out is how to find other files saved  on the flash drive.  Like I'll save a few MS word files onto the drive, and then try and look them up through the MS word file reader.  Same with pictures etc.  I'm getting nowhere.

Anyway a little help would be great.  Sorry for the stupidity, but I hope to be a bigger member of the community someday.

Ahh good stuff.

Well I'm just glad to see this wasn't some super simple thing I was overlooking, which is what I had assumed it was.  Definitely some great ideas there, I'll make sure and look into them.

Thanks a lot for the response & links.
