Does anyone have a clue how I can "burn the iso" to the usb stick ? I googled a lot, and I found some instructions, but I don't really get it.
The missing floppy drive is a big problem in that context...
Maybe someone knows a way - might be interesting for others too.

I copied it to an 8GB usb stick.
I  followed  tese links:

My computer now boots but ends up in a busybox
Will try to find out and will report after success.
Here is my syslinux.cfg btw:

Probably like many others, i'm eager to test the new beta. But never having needed DL dvd's i cant burn the 5.8Gb image. Has anyone modified the image to make it fit on 4.7Gb ? Has anyone done a pxe/NFS boot trick.
Looking forward for any nice solutions.
