I have a old Sony 1 GB thumb drive and purchased a 8 GB Sandisk
Curser drive over the holidays. Tried to make the Sandisk Ubuntu 8.10
bootable. It and/or the computer try to boot but failed. Maybe that
is the why.

In a earlier post I ask about accessories. Those are for the computer
room at home. Things to make it easier to use there, although I have
2 computers that have all the power I need there. The accessories was
to be able to configure and use the Asprie in the computer room at
home only. However, a big thumb drive, SD modules, little things like
that would make it easier to use in the field.

Roy, Leslie, and Henry, thanks. Thanks for sticking you heads up. I'm
sure I'll be pick'n your brains on this subject in the near future.
