"Cleaning up to exit" not totally working< *  your script error instructions for setting boot flag with parted: '...................................... # /sbin/parted /dev/sdc  (parted) toggle N boot   (error: "expects partition number")? ....................................... I used Gparted on USB externally then retried it and it worked fine. Note: script fails to make bootable USB if it is a SanDisk Cruzer 4GB that has a hidden U3 partition. (only removable in windows if done prior to using it in linux) (I guess it writes grub to wrong place) Gparted does not see this partition at all *These are in Cheap multi-packs at Cosco and may not even be marked that they contain the U3 partition. Script worked great on a normal USB SugarClone is a great Idea!
