I have been messing with this for several hours now, actually since
yesterday, and can't seem to install livecd on a thumb drive. In
desperation I re-formatted it ext3. That didn't help. I can cp and
delete normal files but liveusb-creator is never happy with it?
[root@box9 ~]# mount
shows:
/dev/sdc1 on /mnt/Fedora type ext3 (rw)
But when I click on "Create Live USB" it displays the following:
Fedora-12-i686-Live.iso selected
Verifying filesystem...
Unknown filesystem for %s. Your device may need to be reformatted.
LiveUSB creation failed!

Reformatted? I believe it's supposed to work with ext3. It was FAT
originally and that produced the same error!
What am I doing wrong?
This is not critical, I could use a CD, But I've put a lot of time
into this and hate to give up.
Bob.
After trying to do this from command line and with the GUI, I
plugged in a different thumb drive and things immediately worked
as expected!
I should have known, I had the other stick because it wouldn't
work in my daughter's Mac. It always worked for me before but
not this time.
