It fits on a 650 MB CD. A 1 GB USB drive is plenty (if you can still find one that small!). <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Dec 25, 2012 at 9:03 PM, Bobby Goins <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:goins0497@insightbb.com" target="_blank">goins0497@insightbb.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Click on the 'Diskimage' radio button. In the area next to the ISO<br>
selection box, click on the '...' area to browse to where you saved the<br>
disk image. Make sure you have at least a 4 GB USB drive plugged in,<br>
and press 'OK'. UNetbootin should start copying the image to the USB<br>
drive. When it is finished, reboot. Enjoy linux and Chirp!<br>

Another thing you can do is 'burn' the image to a USB flash drive using UNetbootin (<a href="http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/" target="_blank">http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/</a>). That's what I did.<br>
