Hi guys,

I would like to install NetBSD 2.0 from my USB-stick.
When I finally managed to write the ISO-image to it,
it isn't recognized as being a valid (boot-)disk, as
I can't list the contents (under Windows). However, when
I burn it to CD-RW I see the contents perfectly fine.
Isn't an ISO-image supposed to be an exact copy of the
filesystem?

I used dd with 'bs=2048', as that seemed to be the correct
blocksize for USB-stick bootable images containing some
Linux-distro.

Does anyone have a clue?

Thanks in advance!
