Same here with fedora core 12 and archlinux. Right now I am converting the
usbimg to a vdi to start it with VirtualBox.

I tried yesterday using VBoxmanage convertdd meego.usbimg meego.vdi

and I got the same error. My guess is convert it using the mic converter and
try again.

Thabks for the comments.
