Thanks for that! I think the flash drive is writing now... The command line is not doing anything but Activity Monitor shows steady disk activity.
The USB stick is also /dev/disk2 on my PowerBook. The first attempt gave me: Resource busy, so I ejected it in finder. Then I got the error: Operation not supported, so then I removed/inserted the stick again, then did a umount /Volumes/USBstick and now it looks like dd is copying. I think your commands would be a more elegant way of doing this.
Should I continue to post progress info in this thread, or should I start my own to not clutter this one?
