Ahh ... the old "whole dvd on a usb stick". I've tried that, but not
successfully so far. I've been trying to customize Urs instructions on being
able to put the livecd on a usb stick an boot that.
http://linux.web.psi.ch/livecd/usbdisk.html
One thing I've found though, is that it is much much faster to do the install
over a network than a usb stick. Well ... ok, what I've really found is that
all the large usb sticks I have are really really slow.
But I've never succeeded in getting what you are planning, to work.

Hi, Oleg!
Thanks! But let me understand this right - the diskboot.img is only
few MB, so I can boot from it. But I think I want to convert a whole
installation DVD into FAT image file and make it bootable, so that I
can install all packages from USB stick?
cheers
Artem.

Hi SL users,
Does anyone have a quick recipe on how to boot/install SL from a USB
stick (when server doesn't have an optical drive)?
cheers
