What part of cd-emulation donÂt you understand? optical media is read-only. Using the U3 updater on a windows machine and changing the hosts file and using a local web server you can make the U3 software updater "burn" any given .iso image into the cd-emulation partition of the U3 flash drive. THEN you can boot that iso image, as the PC identifies it as a USB cd-rom or dvd-rom drive. http://wiki.answers.com/Q/If_you_change_your_U3_ISO_to_a_Linux_ISO_can_you_boot_from_the_ISO FC -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
