Do you get the write-protect errors even when copying a normal file to the device outside of the LivePC Engine? I suspect that this is a hardware problem with your flash drive. I tested about 30 different USB sticks and <a href="http://www.moka5.com/reviews/2006/11/usbstick1.html">wrote a review</a> about them. The worst stick by far was the 8GB AData MyFlash. The access times were incredibly long (900+ seconds for install!) and I was getting sporadic device errors. Needless to say we returned that one back to Fry's ;-). I have a feeling the 4GB MyFlash might not be too hot either. Sorry about your problems. We've had good experiences with the sticks that have the 5-star rating in the review. It's really hard to tell which sticks are good and which ones are bad, so I recommend anyone to take a look at the review before buying a stick. -John Mon, 13 Nov 2006 12:16:52 -0800 http://www.moka5.com/node/367 Good Evening: Just returned from VMWorld - saw your presentation and was impressed. Have downloaded and installed M5 on a MyFlash 4.0gb flash disk. Had extreme difficulties in getting a new LivePC to recognize the fact I wanted to install from an ISO image, so I went the 'import' route on a WinXPSP2 vm image I just had laying around. Fired her up after import; again very impressed, this vm had a cisco VPN setup so fired that up and proceeded to download a 75 mb file (Cisco Communicator - you know, secure communications on a USB is a holy grail thingy) from the office. Half way thru the download, the following error happened: Windows - Write Protect Error Sun, 12 Nov 2006 20:51:29 -0800
