From: Chris on 1 Jul 2010 23:50 Greetings folks, I have been playing a bit with creating live USB flash drives. I'm not having much luck finding examples on how to create the live flash drive with the ability to install it on the PC hard drive. Here's my setup: I have an older laptop with a failed CD reader in it so booting off CD is pointless. I have successfully created a bootable DebianLive (via the wiki) flash drive with Gnome. It's works really, really well! Now, what I would like to do is have the option to install to my laptops drive. Any insight would be greatly appreciated! -- Best regards, Chris 1AB5FEF8
