After I accidentally broke my first successful install of 10.10 netbook edition on a flash drive, I have been COMPLETELY unsuccessful in trying to put it back on my flash drive.
I have a 4GB PNY flash drive that I have been able to boot from in the past
I want Ubuntu 10.10 installed on it so i can use my own customized OS on school netbooks
and i've tried 4 times to get something to boot up, each unsuccessful because it can't seem to read the Casper file.
Nothing I use seems to be able to create a working Casper-RW file
I've tried using the Universal USB installer from pendrivelinux.com as suggested by the Ubuntu download page. It can't seem to figure out how to create a working persistance file
I've tried using the USB startup disk creator from a Ubuntu 9.10 boot disk. That keeps stopping and saying there is some sort of error.
I've had a problem with the casper file before (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1641643), and someone mentioned I should use an ext3 instead.
Can somebody please help? I am stumped.
