==Use liveusb-creator to make new Live USB as Installer USB (Unsupported and Experimental)==
===Make Installer USB===
1_)use soas-2-blueberry CD to make 4GB or Better 8GB Live USB with liveusb-creator
First boot from soas-2-blueberry CD
In Terminal:
zyx-liveinstaller
install to fat 16 or fat 32 USB
choose / and /boot as same /dev/sd(x)* Be sure it is your USB not your Hard Disk!
when finished exit from soas-2-blueberry
*(hint in terminal: enter "gparted" and look at the available HD and USB and note name you want to use. Exit gparted)
2-)Boot from USB made with zyx-liveinstaller
In terminal:
su -
root #
yum install liveusb-creator
(13 files 22MB will download)
===Use liveusb-creator to make new Live USB===
3-) Insert CD containing soas xxxxx.iso  (note this is .iso not Burned CD from .iso)
4-) Insert 2nd USB stick to use to make LiveUSB (format: fat16, factory stock formatting)
In terminal:"liveusb-creator"
select correct USB (usually 1 letter higher than your boot USB)
ie: if Booted USB is /dev/sda target USB will be /dev/sdb
select to find CD with .iso file
move slider to desired perisitence file size
start making USB
exit from running USB and then boot New USB you just created!
This method  installs soas-3-20091228.iso on a stick
.iso
Thus you do not need to use the same version that is on the Installer USB
