All this bruhhah about PClinuxOS has caused me to sit here a few minutes longer.
I ran it on this box for about a year, but some might call me a power user. My parting of the ways was when I needed to build something for the 3rd or 4th time, but the libraries to built it were not avaiable in the repos, AND Texstar refused to add them. Net result was I installed the kit I needed in the form of a wheezy based iso put up by the linuxcnc crowd. I haven't had to do searching since as it uses the wheezy repo's except for a pinned kernel.

That sounds like a bug 2437:
You need someone who uses this. They all seem to be absent, though there are quite a few of them. It's a Saturday. Slávek is usually here at the weekend, which is OK for us Debian users. :-) But people in general are sparse on the ground.
You might find this and what follows interesting: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::6924
It's your time and money, and you who might be getting as pig-headed as I have been known to get, and you who may be saying "I'm ***-well _going_ to get it done this way", but I'd try optical media at this point.
I have had problems with USB installation on occasion. Not, as it happens, with TDE (it was Linux Mint 17 with MATE), but it was a problem with the actual stick. It installed on some boxen and not on others. Honest! Where it didn't install, we managed to get hold of a DVD and that worked.
The actual sticks/keys are a variable bunch. I gather it makes a difference where in the block the chip is cut from - middle or outside.
Grandmother. eggs etc, but I would md5sum or shasum or something check both the download (you already have) *and* the burnt image, if you burn one.
