I've found livecd-iso-to-disk very good. It enabled me to put CentOS, Fedora and Windows XP last week on my HP MicroServer with no CD reader. On the other hand liveusb-creator failed with 2, maybe all 3, of these. But I don't know what you mean by "writable". All the USB sticks I have are writable. I'm assuming you are talking of USB Flash Drives? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
