How I Got Puppy To Install On USB/Pendrive with Grub 2

How I Got Puppy To Install On USB/Pendrive with Grub 2

[ Goal ]
Create a usb stick with multiple rescue and Linux versions.

1.
I use unetbootin to give me an idea of how it creates files for the following is slacko-5.7.0-PAE.iso

Install unetbootin and install slacko-5.7.0-PAE.iso to the usb/pendrive drive.

Copy all the files it creates to a different location. These are the files that were created.

boot.cat
boot.msg
help2.msg
help.msg
initrd.gz
isolinux.bin
isolinux.cfg
ldlinux.sys
logo.16
memdisk_6.02
menu.c32
puppy_slacko_5.7.0.sfs
README.HTM
syslinux.cfg
ubnfilel.txt
ubnpathl.txt
vmlinuz

2.

Use the following instructions to create a bootable usb stick.

Being a linux noob, I just used YUMI on an M$ XP machine, loaded multiple .iso on one stick.

There are Linux versions avalable.
