Help neede with squashfs image

I have downloaded an iso from here http://updates.xepc.org
EeePC_1.7-2008-12-19_20-16.iso. The distro (asus Xandros) is in the form
of a squashfs image that loads system files as read only. I would like to
extract the files & install them on my pc as a normal file system.
Thus enableing me to remove & add software as in a normal distro.

I have extracted the .sfs

My question is how do I set about copying the file system to my pc &
getting it to boot ??
Is it as simple as burning to dvd/USB, booting the pc, partitioning,
formatting, copying file system & booting ??
Or as I suspect am I missing something here ??

Any comments welcome.
Cheers Icarus
