			:: for soas-i386-20100702.15.iso and later you need to use a device mapper lvm2 for root and swap and ext4 for boot
			:::Use '''liveinst''' command to '''format and install''' the 8 GB USB (this installs but presently does not log on at the present time)
			:::Then use '''zyx-liveinstaller''' to make the install on the same USB. (gparted will NOT do partitioning correctly)
