I am real sorry for being vague with my response (sighs). I am very much 
aware that we have a installer[2]. I desire to install the new system 
from a USB disk, so what files should I download from here[2] in order 
to make my USB disk ready for installing the new system ?

The debian's page[3] on setting up a USB stick suggests that, it is 
required to copy the "initrd.gz" and "vmlinuz" (in our case, it is 
"linux" (I guess)), apart from running the "syslinux" & mbr-install 
commands on the USB partition & the USB disk respectively, for making 
the USB ready for installing the new system. Period. I wish to know 
whether this procedure holds true for gNewSense 3.0 alpha installer ? If 
not, how do I get the USB ready for installing the new system ?

Thanks a lot.
