I have found unetbootin to be problematic with various isos, because of
this I use dd and have never had a problem since.

Hi Robert,
Thank you for taking the time to try my remaster. Unfortunately, I am not
100% sure that PCLinuxOS is compatible with tools like UnetBootin for usb
keys. Can you try it directly on a computer with an optical drive?
Also, from my experience as an Asus EEE user, unetbootin does not work all
the time on first try. I also got better results by not touching to the
computer while unetbootin copy the data.

release,
so you don't have to use dinosaur version of your software as
Debian stable. But it is not multi-platform as Debian...

Re Gentoo: I read E. Liddell's post with great interest and am
interested to help but maybe don't have the knowledge, skills and test
hardware to do so.
Re PCLinuxOS: recently I burned the live DVD image to bootable USB
stick and tried to install; it hung after a single line of text. I
might have done it wrong and am willing to try again.
