====Duplication of USB Sticks====
'''CAUTION'''
*VERY DANGEROUS IF NOT ENTERED CORRECTLY
*USB to be copied to MUST be larger for this to work (not all USB Sticks are exactly the same size)
* * be certain of /dev/sd(x) for your USB Stick ( I use partition editor in Ubuntu 9.04 to identify USB)
*Note that .img file on Desktop can be compressed for distribution.
*Example of sucessful clone session:
=====Make Image:=====
root@xxxxx:/home/robert/Desktop# dd if=/dev/sda* of=USB8.img

15687680+0 records out

=====use image to write USB Clone:=====
root@xxxxx:/home/robert/Desktop# dd if=USB8.img of=/dev/sda*
