^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Why create an MS-DOS filesystem on the stick which gets immediately
overwritten in the next step?
> # dd bs=4M

Is this what HPE says how to create the stick? If yes then you may ask HPE
how to get it to work.

That's usually fine because the cdrom can be mounted as loop device. No
need for a real cdrom.
