Damn Small Linux Live Flash Drive

I downloaded Damn Small Linux and it came as an ISO image. I used K3b to burn it to cd and made a livecd version. How would I go about putting it on my jump drive? It advertises when it starts up that you can do that, but I don't know how I would go about extracting the files to my jump drive. I tried copying them straight over from my CD and it didn't work.

Does it have to be Damn Small Linux?

Reason I ask is I mentioned in another thread about CPX-Mini which is a debian based live iso for usb thumbdrives....it uses fluxbox unionfs and persistant home directory as well as grub.

Theres also the very similar benix which is somewhat the same but uses xfce.
Both are kanotix debian based on sid.

I just installed CPX-Mini and it rocks.
The install went flawlessly with the included script.

enjoy
