Hi;
as root do "fdisk -l"
Insert stick.
repeat "fdisk -l"
The new entry is your stick - say sdc1.
Now "fdisk /dev/sdc" - note drop the 1.
"p" to show the partition table.
If it is bootable there should be a "*" as the first char.
"a"
"1" for the first partition.
"p" star should be there now.
"w" to write it out.
done.
