    Unhappy Not booting

    Hi. I downloaded Fedora-14-i686-Live-Desktop.iso and used the Fedora liveusb-creator to put this on a 2GB USB stick. Everything seemed to have gone well and it said complete; however, when I try to boot from the USB stick, I get a black screen with a linux copyright notice at the top and it just stays at that screen forever. I tried this on two computers with the same results.

    I'd previously tried with Ubuntu and had a similar issue, it would go to a purple (if I remember correctly) Ubuntu screen and it sat that forever.

    Any ideas would be appreciated as google searches and documentation don't seem to be getting me anywhere.

    Thank you.

    I've never tried the windows fedora live USB creator before, it might be better to burn it on to a disc.

    If you're on a linux machine somewhere, you can use the dd command to burn the ISO on the USB device, this method has always worked for me.
