After reading over all the info here, I think I'm going to go with dd
since the data isn't too sensitive.
I created a "9.1_Live_x64" USB key with unetbootin, but the laptop
won't boot to it. I have another 512MB USB key that it boots to just
fine. Could my 8GB key be non-bootable? The laptop's CD drive isn't
working so I need another way to install an easy copy of Linux after I
dd.

Wouldn't Knoppix work? I'm pretty sure it has the dd command and I know
you can install Gentoo from it. Since there are some versions of
Knoppis that would fit on a CD, I would see if one of those would fit on
the 512Mb thingy.
Damn Small Linux may be a option too. Not sure about installing from it
tho. I guess the network and stuff would work from it.
Just some thoughts.
