howdy all. First time poster here. First of all kudos to all of you for excellent community and support. Have been turned on to and using UBUNTU on a stick for several months now and must say I am extremely pleased.

My success has pushed me from running it on VMWare under windows as well as 2G, 8G, 32G sticks and now to a 64G stick.

However when partitioned for the full 64G, the makeboot.bat utility reports that "syslinux.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience".

If I partition a 32 (on the 64) then all is good.

Can anyone shed some light on this? and/or can anyone show me the "debug" code to manually create this boot sector on the target USB.

I'm dying to open up the full 64G.

IF I'm posting incorrectly, don't hesitate to scold me.
