To write this iso image to a usbstick is simple. Let’s see:
Create a bootable, 256 Megs or more, Linux partition on your USB pen drive ie /dev/sda1 with fdisk like the following sentence
Watch out, it will suppress all data
# fdisk /dev/sda
d
n
1
Choose the size you want...
a
w
Format is Ext3 filesystem.
# mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda1
Put the file mbr.bin on the whole filesystem:
# cat extra/mbr.in > /dev/sda
(This file resides in the iso/cd in etxra/)
Mount it on /mnt/usbstick:
# mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbstick
Copy the /isolinux and livecd.squashfs files on /mnt/usbstick.
Use extlinux to write the bootloader on the stick : extlinux /mnt/usbstick/isolinux
You’re done. Now unmount it, reboot and enjoy.
