I followed the instructions in this video; that part worked out just fine. The problem comes when I try to partition the disk (Virtual OS: Gentoo). Whenever I try to write (w) the new partition table with fdisk, the virtual OS freezes and this error message pops up:
I thought this might have to do with the thumb drive (Corsair Flash Voyager 16GB) being "Write Protected", so I tried the following suggestions:
Access was denied, so option 1 was dead in the water
I did as options 2 and 3 instructed, no dice.
I'm at a loss here. I don't believe this has ever been addressed on Hak5, though it should be because it's a big enough pain in the ass to warrant a segment. Hope someone out there can help me out.
My Host OS is Windows 7 64-bit. The Corsair thumb drive is formatted NTFS.
