Hmm I think I have a script somewhere that will do that. Pretty nice.
Would be a good addition if you would care to contribute.
What's the reason for fat16? Why not ext2,3? Just curious.
None that I know of.

Comments, please.
This looks good, however - the centos docs already include a section on
this, and dont they cover the same ground ?
Umm, where?

Okay, but that only uses the diskboot.img and then installs the rest
over the network - that is where the wiki article differs, as it is
using the isos, so no network

right, you can just copy the isos to the usb key, and run a normal HDD

True, and would be glad to note that, but having it all on the USB key

You can still install completely from the USB key - you just put the
diskboot.img on one partition, make it

A new draft page has been created on how to set a USB key to install
CentOS from ISO images. This would be most useful for netbooks or other
systems without a CD/DVD drive.
