Download damn small linux iso12/24/2022 Like much else in Linux, I don't know a darned thing about QEMU, now to install or configure it, or even if it will fit with DSL on a 128 USB pen drive. Reading further, it appears to me that one can use DSL with QEMU to boot directly from within Windows. As a "for instance," if I go to my daughter's house, with her Windows box and I want to do something, I'd like to merely be able to plug my USB pen drive into a USB port and boot into Linux, with all my own settings, email addresses, bookmarks and the like.without disturbing the settings in her machine. Also, many of the older boxes may or may not have the boot to USB device in the BIOS. I'm trying to avoid that, as I don't want to mess with the BIOS in someone's computer, other than mine. Now, I've read about booting up, as well and going into the Windows box BIOS and setting it to boot from the USB drive. With all my own settings, bookmarks in the browser and so forth. What I'd like to do is have DSL on the USB drive, so if I am somewhere there is a Windows box, I could plug the USB drive in and bring up DSL Linux to use. It's my understanding that I should be able to install DSL 1.4 on the Lexar USB drive, but I'm not sure how. I have one Windows XP box on my network, as well, so can work from that or the Linux box.no problem with that. ![]() I also have a copy of DSL 1.4 on a CD, which I purchased, since I usually mess up doing downloads. Again, this is far from critical, I'm just playing around right now.Īnyway, I have a Lexar 128M USB Jump Drive, which is readily identified when I plug it into my Linux box with SUSE 9.3. Maybe over my head! I've read the forum on the DSL website and I'm as lost as before I read it! Knowing the patience of members on this forum, I thought maybe I'd see if anyone here has had some experience with DSL and USB pen drives.
