Hello,
Trying to install IFL to my new USB pen 64GB for use as a portable backup/restore device....
makeHDD is giving me the error in the subject line above....
Is 64GB still over the size limit of IFL to go onto a USB device or is there some option I can use to
make this work. It seems to me that this was working previously at some point in the near past...
Thank you...
Curtis

Followup:
After some research I found that Linux was not setting this USB pen device up as a "removable" device,
hence the makeHDD script was failing.
I told makeHDD to ignore this check for a quick test, it built the USB pen properly. A subsequent reboot
and test of the USB pen seemed to indicate it was created properly and appears to be working just
fine....
Not sure why but apparently this USB pen is not reporting itself properly to the operating system or something..
Its a 64GB Fantom Drives DataBank in case anyone else runs into this same issue.
