Recently, I had trouble creating a LiveUSB and asked for help here.  I was given instructions on how to create it using dd, and followed them after correcting a slight error in the instructions.  Now, I've finally got my laptop back, and tried to use the flash drive.  All that happens is a grub> prompt.  I don't know what went wrong, or how to correct it. This is the command that I used:

I don't know what the context is here, but are you sure you're booting from the USB? If there's grub installed on the internal hard drive, but missing partitions or something, then you'll get that.

dd if=f38.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=1M

That's good. You can mount the USB drive to verify that the files are there.

And the correction was using M instead of m.

Shouldn't matter either way, other than probably being more efficient with M.
