[LAU] someone awhile back posted about how to make a bootable Linux flash drive?

I thought I had kept the email, but can't find it now. I Googled, and 
tried one method that claimed to work with Debian, but it only produced 
a flash drive with an unknown partition table ...

What I'd LIKE to do is be able to boot 64Studio from the flash drive, 
install that, then rework the flash drive to similarly install ArtistX.

The CD drive in the target laptop is going bad, and partway through the 
install process starts having problems reading from the DVD/CD. My last 
attempt left me with a semi-functional 64Studio installation, but I'd 
rather do it right ...

Or can you just dd an iso image to a hard drive????

This is all so complex!
