Please write a similar page for help.ubuntu.com with easy instructions for installing Ubuntu from a USB flash drive, and link to that page from the download page. For writing these easy instructions, please take a look at this page - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - and copy only the easy method of doing it with the script, and these - http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2008/04/09/usb-ubuntu-804-installation-from-windows/ - very easy instructions for doing the same on Windows.
