[Sugar-devel] LiveUSB-creator 3.6.5 may fail silently on Windows

[Frederick Grose]

In Windows Vista32, I found that LiveUSB-creator 3.6.5 reported success in
creating a Sugar Stick from Soas2-200904231400.iso, but the image failed to
boot.

In Ubuntu 9.04 (Jackalope64) I then tried Sebastien's livecd-iso-to-disk.sh
script from 09 April 2009 (
http://people.sugarlabs.org/sdz/livecd-iso-to-disk.sh), on the same .iso
file and found that it failed the verify:

Soas2-200904231400.iso:   065249f7642bfec4cd0da94aa99e2f8d
Fragment sums: f509dc7ac19135f235da547918cc3ee813c47fabc597f96145c5b8727594
Fragment count: 20
Checking: 100.0%

The media check is complete, the result is: FAIL.

So, some of the SoaS boot problems may be traced to files that may have been
corrupted before final use.
