Hi,
in advance I ask for lenience if these questions have been discussed
before. The access to archived messages b monthly files is a bit
troublesome...
I want to format a 16GB USB stick and use it to boot my Sony Vaio
laptop. I believe I follow the instructions to make a liveUSB
installation on the pure:dyne site by the letter. I'm running
Fedora10 to do the preparation of the USB device with these problems:
(1) the suggested installation / update of some utilities using a
'sudo aptitude update' command fails with the message 'command not
found'
(2) the suggested GUI method fails - the command 'sudo gparted'
generates a 'command not found' error
(3) the command line method fails because at the end after the 'w'
command I get the message
Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table
WARNING: Re-reading the partition table failed with error 22:
Invalid argument.
Until that point the command line approach rendered the results
documented on the site...
Are the first 2 commands 'debian only'? If they are and there are
Fedora equivalents I'd be glad to know...
Best regards
Jurgen
