Hi
I just grabbed an 8gig thumb drive, took disk 1 centos 4 i386, copied the isolinux directory files to my thumbdrive, then ran syslinux -sf /dev/sdc1 on the device plugged it into my laptop and it does not boot.
Is there a step(s) I am missing to get a bootable thumbdrive with centos?
I think you also need to add a boot sector to the drive. On my 64-bit system:
#dd if=/usr/lib64/syslinux/mbr.bin of=/dev/sdc
