Update USB Quickstart

Reported by: camerons Owned by: wildintellect
Priority: normal Milestone: OSGeoLive6.0Final
Component: OSGeoLive Keywords: 6.0, docs

Description

Update: http://live.osgeo.org/en/quickstart/usb_quickstart.html

We need to remove reference to the windows version of creating a USB, as people have been reporting that it doesn't work.

So the quickstart should only describe one way to create a USB (the best way that we know) which will be based upon Ubuntu linux (and probably should be based upon how to do this with an OSGeo-Live DVD (which we expect the user will have).

It should continue to reference: http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Disc_Quick_Start_for_USB The wiki can describe other methods of creating a USB.

Since we are switching to chroot method for the iso, this quickstart will have to be changed to something similar to this: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/help/create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu http://www.ubuntu.com/download/help/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows
