Yes, just select the USB flash drive you want to install to.

You will be able to see the files on the drive afterwards, although in
some cases, you may have to remove and reinsert the USB flash drive
before Windows recognizes it again (as the on-screen instructions say).

If you don't check the "CD Boot Image Files" option, the IFD boot disk
itself will still be bootable, but you won't be able to create
*bootable* restore discs (CD/DVD) from IFD. In other words, you could
still create a restore CD/DVD from IFD, but it won't be bootable unless
you check that option.

That option is primarily intended for when you want the IFD boot disk to
be on a floppy diskette. IFD (GUI) won't fit on a standard 1.44 MB
floppy if you check that option (it will fit on a 2.88 MB floppy if you
have one).

Thank you very much for your time and reply Tom. I really appreciate it.

You might also be able to use a SD card in an external
reader. The Rosewill USB 3 reader that NewEgg sells can boot
IFL on a SD card on my computer where the internal card
reader will not. Don't know about other kinds of card.
