#: See [[olpc:How to Damage a FLASH Storage Device]] before formatting. The 'Stick' probably came with a FAT file system that the Fedora LiveUSB Creator will use. You can even leave some of your files on the drive. You may want to try using the native drive formatting to see if it works before reformatting the drive.

: Thanks FGrose! They are slightly clearer - at least it says something like "Do Not Do unless fails without." Perhaps the detail I was looking for belongs on the http://wiki.laptop.org/go/How_to_Damage_a_FLASH_Storage_Device page? MWTalbutt

* Recommended overlay and home sizes -
Execute the Linux command line: /livecd-iso-to-disk --reset-mbr --overlay-size-mb '''500''' --home-size-mb '''900''' --delete-home --unencrypted-
- Shouldn't these sizes be bigger for 4 GB and 8GB USB sticks?

OK,
To prevent it name the sticks Fedora prior to putting the image on them. (This step should be added to the online instructions.)
Now, if you did not change the name and need to modify the syslinux.cfg, change the following lines: (you will have a different UUID#)
append initrd=initrd0.img root=live:UUID=3D4E-8E71 rootfstype=vfat rw liveimg overlay=UUID=3D4E-8E71 quiet rhgb rd_NO_LUKS rd_NO_MD
append initrd=initrd0.img root=live:UUID=3D4E-8E71 rootfstype=vfat rw liveimg overlay=UUID=3D4E-8E71 quiet rhgb check
to
append initrd=initrd0.img root=LABEL=FEDORA rootfstype=vfat rw liveimg overlay=LABEL=FEDORA quiet rhgb rd_NO_LUKS rd_NO_MD
append initrd=initrd0.img root=LABEL=FEDORA rootfstype=vfat rw liveimg overlay=LABEL=FEDORA quiet rhgb check
I tested this fix and it works.

:Please see the amended instructions. Renaming is not required with current version of the installer. The Fedora Live USB Creator transfers the disc image to the USB drive. --[[User:FGrose|FGrose]] 00:57, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
