F9 Live USB IO Errors

[Andrew Overholt]

Hi,

I've made some live USB sticks with persistent overlays for a few
people.  3 of the people have now told me that they can no longer boot
as they get IO errors with what looks like corrupted filesystems.  Has
this happened to anyone else?  The USB sticks were a variety of 1 GB and
2 GB models from various manufacturers and I've never had any issues
with them before.

I created the sticks like so:

sudo livecd-iso-to-disk --reset-mbr \
  --overlay-size-mb <1000 or 200 or whatever> \
  Fedora-9-i686-Live.iso /dev/sdb1
