I want F9 on a USB stick.

However, the EeePC should do - it does from a Mandriva flash drive. It lists the drive, in BIOS, enclosed in [ ] which seems to mean that it is not bootable, so I looked at the drive with fdisk. It saysDisk /dev/sdc1: 8120MB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: loopand that 'The flag 'boot' is not available for loop disk labels' Obviously I've done something wrong, but what?

Dumb question - did you run "fdisk -l /dev/sdc" or"fdisk -l /dev/sdc1"? The first form is the correct one, and the second one will give strange results. From the output it looks like you used the second form.
