The gpxe.usb image is designed to be written to a USB stick and will overwrite all data on the USB stick - make sure to back up your files first! You can make gPXE USB sticks using dd for Windows: http://www.chrysocome.net/dd With Windows or Linux, you write gpxe.usb to the USB device like this: dd if=gpxe.usb of=<USB device> where you replace <USB device> with the path to your USB device. Also note that you need to give the path to gpxe.usb if you are not in the directory that contains gpxe.usb. Under Linux, you can see the disks attached to your system using: ls -l /dev/disk/by-path Look for a path that includes "usb" in it. Ignore paths that end in "-part", they are partitions and gpxe.usb should be written to the whole device not a partition. I don't know how to find the device path under Windows, sorry. Maybe the dd for Windows link above can help.
