But did you make the flash drive bootable? It's not just a question of copying the files. Have a look at this site.

Have a look at unetbootin for all your flash drive booting needs, anything you can boot from a CD it can make boot from flash.

xcopied? That's windoze talk. :pfff:

Do you have a working Linux install to use? How about Trinity or System Rescue CD?
Use the linux command line and do it right -- see references at this site , specifically from CrunchBang, which cannot be installed using UNetbootin! :kaola:
