Hello

I am reasonably new to Ubuntu/Linux in general.

I have a 32gb USB 3.0 stick and have installed Ubuntu 11.10 DVD i386 ISO onto it using Universal-USB-Installer-1.8.9.0.exe

I formatted the stick to FAT32 (as that is what I was told to do) and then set the Casper RW file to 4 gb. I have just learned that that 4 gb is my disk space.

Is there a way of having a bigger Casper RW file? I read that 4 gb is the maximum file size when on a FAT32 partition.

Thank you very much for your help,

Richard Hughes


Edit:

I solved this by following this article:
