I use unetbotin.

I am not sure if I understood what you meant, are you saying that you had an error message indicating that packages could not be found?
If so, it could be that you indicated a wrong path for Salix packages' location. Which path did you give?

Yes it's my problem.

The version of salix is Lxde 13.1.2

yes I first choosen /dev/sdb1 and then path /salix or /stuff/salix

When window appears to choose from, full, basic or core, and choose any, appears another window saying there is no packages.

Thank you for advice.

Is the usb drive really mounted under /dev/sdb1? How many hard drives do you have?

This might be a little of topic but the new scripts I posted on the bugtracker should eliminate problems like this going forward.

I've added a 'Browse' button so the user can check the contents of the partition to find the correct directory or go back and change partition!
