Hello,

So I was creating a archlinux usb bootable drive:

[root@masterkorp-laptop Downloads]# dd bs=4M if=archlinux-2013.06.01-dual.iso 
of=/dev/sdb
130+1 records in
130+1 records out
548405248 bytes (548 MB) copied, 0.964976 s, 568 MB/s

I was like WOW, this was too fast! But nothing ever gets written to
the pen drive.
To add to the weird factor, a dd to dev/sdb1 (partition) works as it
should, slowly. But then ofcourse the iso gets unbootable.

The md5sum on the iso is correct.
I tried with diferent pen drives.

Please, any suggestions is welcome.
