Done. Once again, apart from VGA specific issues, the problem seems to
be a defective
and/or not correcly initialized usb key. See the jpg. Correct ?
Under plan9 the dd/pump of the image on the key is very slow (tried
sever buffer size etc) and,
i suspect, not always error free.
Do you know how to reliably dd an usb key under win7 ?
