   This works for me:

   A message posted by GottaGoFast in
   http://forum.slitaz.org/topic/install-slitaz-to-usb-stick-make-it-act-as-harddrive:

   Final working order:
   Install slitaz-4.0.iso to CD
   Boot from CD
   Insert USB
   Format USB to ext3 in gparted
   Open SliTaz Panel
   Install -> Install Slitaz
   Follow instructions w/ web "stable" and pointing to sdc1 (USB) [because I have two HDDs. Check USB location with gparted]
   After install is finished, open PCMan
   Select the CD-ROM
   Tool -> Open Current Folder as Root
   Browse to /boot/grub/ to get splash.xpm.gz
   Copy splash.xpm.gz
   Select USB (TOSHIBA etc etc for the one I used)
   Browse to /boot/grub/
   Paste splash.xpm.gz
   Open menu.lst
   Edit menu.lst entry to:

   root (hd0,0)
   kernel /boot/vmlinux-2.6.37-slitaz root=/dev/sdc1 rootdelay=8 lang=en_us kmap=us vga=788 quiet

   Save menu.lst
   Turn off computer
   Eject CD but leave in USB
   Boot
   Voilà! Slitaz 4.0 running on USB with persistence

   @ evat, What you describe is a full install on a USB stick. This works and of course you have persistence.

   @ ch4ndr4,
   If you want to have persistence with a Live USB, your stick must be formated ext2/3. How did you do your live and which version of SliTaz do you use?

   Bonjour EVAT,

   Ta solution d'installation sur cle usb marche-t-elle si celle-ci est formatée en FAT32 ?
   merci de ta réponse.
   Salutations.

   Bonjour robert.jclaude,

   Oui, la méthode d'evat fonctionne même si la clé est formatée FAT.

   Attention à l'appellation de ta clé : selon que ton disque dur est reconnu en tant que hda1 ou sda1 par l'installateur, ta clé sera identifiée respectivement sda1 ou sdb1. Et si tu as partitionné ta clé tu pourras avoir une partition spécifique pour ton /home.
