I've gotten it as far as to create some files on the flash drive.
How I installed puppy to drive:
Used that one HP thingy to format drive as fat16.
Downloaded puppy-1.0.4-mozilla.iso
Extracted image.gz, usr_gram.fs, and vmlinux to drive.
Downloaded syslinux.zip, and extracted that to drive.
Downloaded syslinux-3.11.tar.bz2, and used syslinux.exe to create boot sector(I think that's what the program does) because syslinux.com didn't work because of some problems writing to the flash drive boot sector.
Then I tried to boot up and I get a bunch of errors.
A bunch of "cp-full- cannot create" entries.
Followed by, "Mount: Mounting none on /usr Failed: Invalid argument"
"Pausing for 60 seconds"
After the pause it displays, "Exec: /root/.etc/rc.d/rc.local0: No Such File or Directory"
Then it ask me for login/password.
Attached is a image of the files on the drive after I rebooted. Any clues to what's wrong?
USB Flash Drive Boot Failure
Maybe full
pup100 should be created but it's not there - is the drive full?

Your picture looks like what I saw when I first got started. Read those two threads and see if that helps.
