        And this mini pc has a HDD, compact flash?  You want to run off the USB or just use it for install?  It has 2 network interfaces?

        See the files with memstick in them, img.gz grab the one for your platform be it 32 or 64 bit.  unzip so you have img file and then burn that to your stick.

          thanks for the quick reply

          its got a HDD

          2 NICS and WiFi

          want to install it on HD rather than running it live on USB stick

          whats the difference between serial and normal memory stick?

            serial would be for when you don't have a monitor..

                  Win32 Disk Imager works well.
