Been trying to make a bootable thumb drive, .. the OpenSuSe site says that<br>
dd should work, but I have tried three different bootable .iso's, and none<br>
of the thumb drives boot.<br>
<br>
Does anyone know the secret?<br>

<br>It supports many different linux distros.<br clear="all"></div></div><br>In Ubuntu I use "usb-creator" which works flawlessly but I'm not sure it has the same level of os support as the pendrivelinux util.<br>
<br>I've followed tutorials in the past that used dd and they always seem to have a step with syslinux in them.<br><br>-- <br>Matthew Nuzum<br>newz2000 on freenode, skype, linkedin, <a href="http://identi.ca">identi.ca</a> and twitter<br>
