You can use the livecd-iso-to-disk script (from the livecd-tools package) to put a Fedora live image (.iso) onto a usb stick. From there, you can boot and run the live image from the usb stick and even do the install. That may not be exactly what you're looking for, but hopefully it's close. Another thing you may want to try is writing the diskboot.img to your usb stick and also adding the dvd iso image there as well (which you may have to futz with a bit to add after you dd the diskboot.img, I forget). That method would give you a bootable usb stick which would start up anaconda and let you do the traditional install all off the usb stick. -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A fine is a tax for doing wrong.
