-   Just got my Mandriva flash 2008 which boots from the cd on my laptop fine. However when booting directly from USB there is GRUB written in the top left hand corner and then nothing. I have successfully booted other USB keys using instructions from pendrive linux so I know it is possible on the machine. One point which may / may not be relevent is that any successful USB keys I have made are on FAT16 sticks not FAT32 as the FLASH 2008 stick is. Is there a fix or must I use the CD everytime!??
