    I don't see why not though I haven't done this.

    Install Damn Small Linux to a Flash Drive in Windows | USB Pen Drive Linux

    If me I would go for a Tiny Core USB install instead.
    As it uses the 2.6 kernel and can be built upon with newer applications like Firefox 3.6. DSL has been frozen for quite some time now. Tiny Core was built by a person who used to develop DSL.
