This doesn't look like a partition table
Probably you selected the wrong device.

Hi Jacques,
Could you go to the terminal window and with the USB mem stick plugged
in, run the following command:
sudo fdisk -l
The output should tell us what a few more details about the disk.
Kind regards,
Bernard

Dear LUG members,
I've a small problem with my USB mem stick.
It's a 2GB stick, but Ubuntu says it's only 940MB big.
Anyone of you an idea??
Jacques
