Greetings Joe Please be aware of some Sandisk-specific issues with Cruzers, they usually have the exotic U3 formatting arrangement - the stick presents itself to the host computer as a hub with CD-ROM and USB drives attached. Try inserting the key while running Vista, if several drive letters are reserved it's a US key.
Have you tried a non-U3 formatted stick? thanks Sean On Fri, Jun 5, 2009 at 10:54 AM, Tomeu Vizoso<[email protected]> wrote: > On Sat, May 30, 2009 at 17:14, <[email protected]> wrote: >> Am running Fedora 10 and want to create a Sugar On A Stick.
