1-)<br>
command: /mnt/live/SugarClone<br>
<br>
It found my 4GB SD in drive /dev/sdd1 <br>
from the booted USB /dev/sdc1<br>
worked and found cardreader SD as only device<br>
but had error message about permissions for ssd files (2) <br>
It went on to do successful install to SD.<br></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>More testing with SD devices is needed.</div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0.8ex; border-left-width: 1px; border-left-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-left-style: solid; padding-left: 1ex; ">

3-) used resulting USB to write to new SD it could not find /dev/sdd1<br>
looked for /dev/sde1<br>
<br>
4-) did wget of modified_livecd-iso-to-disk (new version)<br>
used new 2GB SD formatted fat16 boot flag<br>
error: /dev/sde1 /media/target.xxxxx<br>
mount: you must specify the file system type..<br>
exit clean<br>
......<br>
exit 1<br>

questions: <br>
Are there a new and old version of the modified_livecd-iso-to-disk
script?<br></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yes, changes were made to the usage() function (option --help) and other error or help messages.
