I formatted the USB drive as ext3. Its 1 GB in size. # livecd-iso-to-disk --reset-mbr --overlay-size-mb 150 /home/xxx/Download/f10-kde-4.1.80-1/f10-kde-4.1.80-i686-200812091339.iso /dev/sdc1 Verifying image... /home/xxx/Download/f10-kde-4.1.80-1/f10-kde-4.1.80-i686-200812091339.iso: a96d2ab033fdb2506f6c0a992ce0dcd6 Fragment sums: e688f4ff7644a9b4f19db4829273d6ecdfbefd5844559dcae9dd1f628667 Fragment count: 20 Checking: 100.0% The media check is complete, the result is: PASS. It is OK to use this media. Already set up as live image. Deleting old OS in fifteen seconds...

So I then booted it and got this on the command line: Mount: you must specify the file system type. Bug in initramfs/init detected Dropping to a shell. Good Luck ! Bash: no job control in this shell. <shell is non functional> I ran this same iso a couple times before when the drive was formatted as FAT32. Does the livecd-iso-to-disk have problems with a drive formatted as ext3 ?
