Writing Partitions on Linux?

I’m Using Knoppix Linux and i want to write partitions on my A Data 2 Gb flash drive so that i can have a live cd on that drive. It is in FAT 32 format and the CFDISK program wont let me write partitions because it says Fatal Error: Bad primary Partition 0. Partition Begins with end-of-disk. My ultimate goal is to have linux on a pendrive to boot to other computers and the instructions i got tell me to write partitions.

I was wondering what the smallest linux os was that was in live cd format to download?

I have tried Damn Small Linux and I have no idea how to download it, help!!!!!!!
