Quote:
SLAX is a small bootable CD containing the Linux operating system. It runs Linux directly from the CD (or USB) without installing. The Live CD described here is based on the Slackware Linux distribution and uses Unification File System (also known as unionfs), allowing read-only filesystem to behave as a writable one, saving all changes to memory.

I never got that working either... Worked fine on CDs... tried a few ways to get it going on a thumb drive and it wouldn't boot on any system, even if they did support booting from USB.
Make sure your Bios has USB 1.1 enabled....I found that out when none of my USB keyboards would work when installing XP, but they do work in Windows, and to open the bios. Was wierd...checked the Bios and noticed it had USB 2.0 enabled, but not USB Legacy 1.1, enabled that and it went without a hitch.
Not sure if that'll fix the booting from usb or not though BB.
