You un-compress the patch and put it on the memory stick, put the stick in the receiver and from the receiver remote go into the USB menu and apply the patch

Is a 1gb flash big enough for the patch?

I use 256MB stick found in the gutter :scarry..: Your stick would give you enough room for about 850 patches at the same time mate
