acid install from usb thumb drive
Anyone been able to get the acid distro to install via a usb thumb drive? I have tried to get this to work on a pc that supports boot from usb but the install gets stuck with the kickstart menu because it looking for files from a CD rom rather then a usb drive. Yes in know that the Xipper distro can be loaded via usb but I'm looking for Acid on a usb drive. I asked about this a couple of years ago but go no response. Hopefully somebody has this working now.

I've had the same experience... attempted to trick it in the BIOS without success. It appears to be "hardwired" in the code to go to a CD, and not to the location it initially booted, which in my case was a USB solid state memory device. It booted, but would not load because it expected the data to be on a CD.
