My X31 is unhappy with my USB stick, for some reason.
I partitioned it, installed isolinux on sda1, ran install-mbr on
sda and copied the usual suspects in their correct locations.
The stick is, of course, formatted with FAT.

Is there anything I am missing? Are there any tricks
especially for Thinkpads?


Thanks,
Richard
