Thank you very much for your help,
I can test the key.

I find great pleasure MX-14 and I'm looking down on a distribution for usb key with a persistent mode.

This is a very nice distribution, and not for the key. Become a fan :)

I want to tell you more.

When using antix2usb, if it fails (let's not go into why for the moment), user will have to reformat the stick, making sure it is bootable and REBOOT their OS and try again.

One thing to check, if you reboot from the hard disk without the USB, after creating the USB, is the boot order in the computer setup.
My computer insisted on putting the hard disk before the USB if I booted from the hard disk once without the USB key.
I had to go into the setup at boot time, and change the order of "hard disk" booting (with USB inserted) so that USB was before the hard disk. Otherwise, it just booted right to the hard disk and I thought the USB was defective.

Nice, have one usb 8 gig and one usb 16 gig. Both have been reformatted, ex2, ex3 and fat 32, before booting the live CD. Reformatted while in live RC2 CD,
in Deb7, in Kubuntu, in Anti X M13, on two 32 bit machines, on two 64 bit machines, all using Gparted.

Netbootin works 5X5 from the Live RC2 CD, Antix live usb works with a live Anti X M13 CD on all four machines.

IT IS NOT WORKING HERE and I do not know why.

Anti I would love to post the log however, get a catch 22 once live usb launches, can not copy & paste anything to anywhere.
Not in the file manager or screen copy or the clip board. they start but, will not finish the task. Will play with later when
I some more time.

zeeone,
you mean :
- With Antix 13.? (x86) live usb (from a usb key), you can create a usb key correctly?
- With Antix 13.? (x64) live usb (from a usb key), you can create a usb key correctly?

- With Antix MX14-RC2 (x86) live usb (from a usb key), you CAN’T create a usb key correctly?
- With Antix MX14-RC2 (x64) live usb (from a usb key), you CAN’T create a usb key correctly?

Thank you for your help
