Hi,

I just went to download the latest version of R6 and noticed that there is a new file there called usbstick.tar.bz2. Is this a version that runs/installs straight from the USB stick? If so, how do I do it?


Thanks,
LiveItNerd

I followed this: http://knoppmyth.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=17981 and it worked pretty well. There are somethings that tjc mentioned in that post that you do not need to do now (the whole replacing isolinux with syslinux). You basically need to format your usb stick, untar the zip onto the drive, and do the syslinux command -- I think I did:
Code:
syslinux -d /syslinux /dev/sdb1

The syslinux command from mtools did not allow the -d option that was necessary for it to work so I had to apt-get install syslinux. I may have forgot something, but it was really very close to what the post said.
