So as I understand you are making a bootable usb-stick?
What is the minimum capacity of the stick.

I tried to do this, but he complains saying the stick is not bootable
so I should use
/sbin/parted
Parted only allows to make a ext2 filesystem.
How should I do this. Why does it work out of the box with you guys?
