   Hi Im´new here and i´m not comfortable to komand prompt. BUT . i have tried several of linux distros for my EEEPC 4g and found slitaz3.0 via LiLi live usb creator.
   Now i created a live stick on a cruzer U3 (that crap!)usb stick. I liked what i found in live session and wanted to install with built in Slitaz installer. when it have probed a short while It says "unable to find rootfz.gz"

   I have formatted the ssd with g-parted (both standalone and slitaz built in)
   What is there to do? shall i download a new iso copy or shall i extract it separately and place it in where?

   Copy the slitaz iso onto the live USB stick.
   How to loop mount slitaz iso to /media/cdrom with mountbox:
   Menu/System Tools/Mount devices
   Click Loop button which opens Loop manager
   Click the blue folder button across from File
   Point/Click browse to the slitaz iso file
   Highlight the iso file click the OK button
   Now your back to Loop manager
   The full path to the iso appears between File and the blue folder button
   Click +Enable button
   The iso file is now listed as /dev/loop0 device
   Close out Loop manager
   Mountbox=>Mount selected device on: /media/cdrom
   Highlight /dev/loop0 Type iso9660 which has Label Slitaz in upper unmounted device window
   Click Mount button in lower left corner
   /dev/loop0 moves to lower mounted device window showing it's mounted to /media/cdrom

   Run slitaz-installer

   Now there is a minor problem. If i try to log in with a user acount it reply after a while its unable to login. it´s not wrong password.. what is to do with that? root logging correctly.
