Which tool(s) do you have for burning?

According to this post:

if i understand correctly then you just have to write over the ISO
file to the blank card.

IAN442, You can not burn image file to CF card directly. You need to burn iso image file to CD-R or CD-RW first.
After that, boot from DSL CD, use cfdisk in aterm as root for CF disk partitioning, then Format partition(s).
Reboot from DSL CD and run Frugal Install.
