[IAEP] Feedback on installing the Windows sugar stick

[klaas langhout]

Quick feedback:
- using http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_on_a_Stick/Strawberry#Windows_Users
- did: Download the latest version of Fedora LiveUSB Creator from http://fedorahosted.org/liveusb-creator/ and extract it;

The instructions didn't match the current LiveUSB creator.  In specific, when I launched the app, no option to format existed but, the download for Sugar on a Stick was already there.  It failed to create and, in looking at the log file it was because of a UNC path usage that was invalid on Windows 7

Z:\liveusb-creator-3.7[1]\liveusb-creator-3.7>type liveusb-creator.log
tools\7z.exe x "soas-strawberry.iso" -x![BOOT] -y -oE:
'liveusb-creator-3.7[1]\liveusb-creator-3.7'
CMD.EXE was started with the above path as the current directory.
UNC paths are not supported.  Defaulting to Windows directory.
The system cannot find the path specified.

I had to manually invoke as: 7z.exe x "..\soas-strawberry.iso" -x![BOOT] -y -oE:

Cheers, thanks for puttting this together.
