If I recall correctly, when I make my sysrescue USB stick, I don't |
| 13 |
create anything. I just run the script. If I am updating it, I use dd |
| 14 |
to erase everything off the stick then run the script. I don't recall |
| 15 |
creating partitions or anything tho. |

| 18 |
thing that makes a big difference. We have all been there before. |
