Hello,

The target media in question was a 16GB Transcend Ultra-Speed USB stick. Now the stick was working fine under normal use in windows. Although I am using it on a brand new AMD Fusion laptop HP Pavilion dm1-4100.

I could install Ubuntu when I tried again. However it crashed at some point, it couldnt find any commands (I was in ssh) and I couldnt shut it down either. So I guess it is possible that it lost the stick again.

So, the question is, how can I test the stick in windows to find out that this is not related to stick itself but perhaps something Ubuntu does (perhaps a bad driver?) is causing this problem?

Is there a practical way that you can suggest with which I can test the stick under Ubuntu?

I am fairly sure that the stick is performing alright, I never had a similar issue with this stick earlier.

Thanks,
Evren
