Comment(by mchua):

 From an email by pbrobinson to lmacken, wrt liveusb-creator fix resources:

 1) bernie's stuff. Having read through this i think its a little more
 complex than it needs to be, but its a useful reference.

 2) martin's git repo:
 http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/soas/repos/mainline/trees/blueberry

 3) parted for windows. I can't find it but I'm sure I've seen it. I
 might have been smoking crack! I'll have a look and follow up.

 4) My way. This isn't tested but I will do next week.

 {{{
 fdisk /dev/sdX
 t 82
 a
 w
 mkdir /mnt/iso /mnt/sfs
 mount -o loop liveimage.iso /mnt/iso
 mount -o loop /mnt/iso/LiveOS/squashfs.img /mnt/sfs
 dd if=/mnt/sfs/LiveOS/ext3fs.img /dev/sdX1
 }}}

 I'm not sure the best way to do the boot loader. Might be easier to
 stick with syslinux. I need to think about it. Thoughts?
