Unless there is a way to make SOAS2 reliable in the face of hasty insertion and deletion, I don't think it will work very well in a classroom setting. It shouldn't be the case that the stick becomes unbootable. Can a root partition on the stick be made read only?<br>

Here is what happened.<br><br>I had SoaS2 on running a desktop.<br>I told it to restart<br>When I thought it was done I pulled out the SoaS2 (maybe a bit early)<br><br>Next on my laptop<br>I had tried to boot from a SoaS1 stick and gottent the /dev/boot error. <br>
I took out the SoaS1<br>I put in SoaS2<br>I turned off and on the computer.<br>Now its booting from Windows not the USB.<br><br>The SoaS2 that had booted on the same computer twice before. <br><br>Somehow I broke the SoaS2 stick. I know I did a number of things not in the best order but is there a way to make things more robust? Is there a way to fix the SoaS2 stick or do I have to reflash it?<br>
