One thing to test would be to see if you can boot a standard Fedora 12
image, which is also available on the LiveUSB Creator on Windows. If
Fedora 12 image boots, then the problem is probably with the SoaS
image. If it doesn't boot, the problem is probably with either the
sticks, the formating, or the hardware you are testing on. (What
hardware are you testing on? Have you successfully booted another
LiveUSB on that hardware?)
