We should be able to say with confidence that SoaS works everywhere<br>
that the Fedora LiveUSB works. No more, no less. And tell a story<br>
around that.</blockquote><div><br>I'm hoping to do a little bit more: by formatting flash drives in a special way we can gain compatability with a large number of BIOSes which are only compatable with USB_ZIP, an older system which is very particular about what it expects from a disk. There's very little potential for regression, and this alternate formatting is (imho) easier to deal with.<br>
