For a while now I have been trying to make a bootable usb in linux, I have tried bootflash install puppy to usb, but it doesn't work, it says: system not found. I would appreciate your help, I don't know much about linux.

Search in this forum for Multipup and Isobooter, they both do a good job.

Just for the heck of it I tried out the Stickpup installer in BionicPup64, which produced a bootable USB in next to no time, replete with Frugal files, EFI and GRUB config files of my chosen ISO, which was BionicPup64_8.0. One does need the original ISO image on file for installation.

I believe Stickpup is an earlier instance of Frugalpup, the more recent details of which which can be found at http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... &start=165.
Frugalpup can be installed as an sfs, which makes it very easy to use.

Stickpup installer as it stands in BionicPup64 appears to be the easiest installer for a USB that I have seen and is recommended for those unfamiliar or experiencing difficulties with making a standalone USB installation.

If this does not boot I would think the issue is with the BIOS settings.
