What do I need to do to set up a Linux bootable memory stick as you describe.
I really like the idea of a memory stick I can just stick into and Windows XP
machine and be able to fix the stuff that I can't fix in Windows. In the past
I've done this with a normal Fedora recovery disc, but that relies on the PC
having a CD or DVD drive.
B.T.W., another shameless plug. It is this Saturday that I'm having my head
shaved for Cancer Research. If you have a few bob to spare, please visit the
link in my sig and donate it Doing it that way we even get a bit back from
the government
