Because I am using the KDE live image and I run KDE on FC9 I know it needs to

How do I do this?
Or how do I create my own updated image to copy to the stick?

I forgot to mention that both the laptop and main box run F9.
Fully updated, KDE 4.0.
The laptop is an AMD Athlon 32 bit, and the main box is Athlon 64x2.
So the main box runs F9x64, laptop F9 i386
Maybe that is why the usb nic works on the main box.
