USB booting :: Help please, frustrated

OK first, DSL is great. Thanks for the distro. Second I am new user to linux. I currently run it on a PC at home and am trying to use it on a USB stick. I have it on the stick with other distros booting with GRUB. I can get it to work except for read write access to the stick. After boot the CDROM and SDA1 are mounted together (/dev/sda1 /cdrom). I tried to remount but it says busy for both devices. I need to write to the stick because I need to use XFree86.dsl on my laptop. Any help appreciated.

OK after reading and reading in the forums I decided to use the embedded version and guess what? it works. I can now mount and write to SDA1 and it is still a poormans install using GRUB. Now onto the XFree86.

OK very happy now. Typing this from DSL on my Dell D400 with xfree86 running and booted from 512 Lexar jump drive. I hope you all enjoyed my conversation with myself.

Score: 5 Funny ;p
