Thanks torreydale - yes, the output describes what 'dd' does, so it would seem to be there.

A mate asked me to prepare the USB stick for him on one of our LL machines (see sig), and this happened to mention another distro.
You took offence and said I was "kinda rude". I'm beginning to find this very stressful.
Well I will say in the politest possible way that I'm truly lost for words, especially since I've always supported LL & had only very positive things to say about LL, the team and the community generally, not to mention contributing financially in a significant way.
The folk on here know that I'm a respectful person and I've always been very grateful for their help and advice with LL - I've been here for more than 5 years and only had positive interaction with the friendly community on here. I also try to help out where I can, even though my linux skills are pretty basic.
In the teaching profession, you always praise the child in public, but scold them in private - it's about respect for a person's dignity.
In a similar vein, if you want to reprimand someone on the forum, over a perceived wrongdoing, please do it via a private message - thanks.
