ok great usul thank you so much. Your insight has been invaluable. I have tried everything from FAT 16 to FAT32 and partioning with qparted and even a windows 98 starter startupdisk to prepare the disk but nothing worked. The online auto wizard did and kudos to the authors of it. Maybe someday when these FlashDrives are even better and out of the New Cool area to the normal arena there will be more support and help to get these things running. I'm just lucky that my cheap 6month old biostar motherboard supported booting from USB. On that note both USB-FDD and USD-HDD selections booted my Flashdrive. Thank you again.. i hope it could works! my godthere shoud be only 1.....ONE dir called knoppix...and some files from bootusb-x.x.x.img in root of the drive .the bootusb-x.x.x.img shoud be extracted by dd or something.....yeah...the WinImage

Thx to cbagger1 and batman...this helped me out, now i can start dsl from my usb-pen Hi, I'm having trouble getting this to work with my Lexar 128MB Jumpdrive. I've tried the isobuster method, the DSL APP method, and the 7 step method posted above, and get the same results on all.
Everything seems to go okay. I get all files, moved, installed etc.. I reboot my computer with the usb drive in place, edit my BIOS to boot from the usb drive first, save my settings, and wait. As soon as the boot process starts, I get the following message "FreeDOS MBR...Boot Failed"
