I have a generic 8GB USB drive that is ok on fdisk (or cfdisk), mkdosfs, dosfsck (initial check)
Have tried from a good iso also from the dirs extract from the iso.
Then after doing the cp command then doing another check, I get weird errors - like, bad long file names, lost sectors, etc. Sometimes I even go back and check the partition with cfdisk and the partition table is messed up.
I've also tried dosfsck and correct the errors which it says it does but the next check with cfdisk or dosfsck still gives errors.
I've even tried using rsync and it blows off with errors on . files - wherever they are coming from.
A couple of times I've had to use the -z with cfdisk.
Oh, yeah, tried a second 8GB USB drive - same results.
$*$*^$)#_#&$ The procedure sounded so easy ??
try mkfs.vfat and fdisk Ruben
