Re: [chirp_users] Bootable Chirp CD & Thumb-drive
Sorry to chase this rabbit trail, but my search of the wiki http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Home for the procedure you mention didn't return any results. Can someone kindly point this n00b in the right direction?

Jim, That is the way I crested mine. It is the procedure described in the wiki.
Thanks, David

If a fake flash drive is a concern, use H2TestW as mentioned here. http://fightflashfraud.wordpress.com/2008/11/24/h2testw-gold-standard-in-det...
If the drive's good, it should work with no errors. If it's burned with a fake capacity, it'll let you know what the real capacity was.
Also, if the drive is not fake but has a defect, it'll catch that too. I have had several Sandisk MicroSD cards go bad and H2TestW reminds me that the corruption problems aren't my fault, it's the card's... zowie!

Thanks, Tom. I will have to check that. I don't know much about the fake drives and what you might get if you buy a drive from a discount house but that could very well be my problem. I will also try with a different thumb-drive.
