I made a new 'live' SliTaz 4.0 usb
Same protocol as last time
(downloaded)ISO to usb via LILI
The last time produced a usb
that would boot on Atom system
not on Pentium
New usb boots on both :)

Hi hitsware
glad to hear that it is working now...have fun
Just out of curiosity, what happens if you copy (dd) the content of the working usb-flash onto the not working one?

If use this :
Hewlett-Packard's USB Disk Storage Format Tool
I have FAT32
If I make a boot to DOS USB
It is most robust ! (works way consistently)
BUT !
Linux distros are evedently challenged someways in the booting department ?
