Quoting Geoffroy GIRAUX <geogiraux AT yahoo.fr>:
<snippy>

Geoffry,

The 0.9.6.3 ISO is probably hard-coded for a CD-ROM and cannot boot from any non-CD/DVD-ROM device.

The devel ISO is probably missing vfat support in the kernel. You could try formatting your USB stick with ext2 (you probably do not want a journaled filesystem on a flash drive) if there is no data on it you require. You can also partition the USB stick so you can have your data on vfat and the ISO on ext2.

Please feel free to file bugs for Cauldron for features we need to add (e.g. vfat, if it is indeed missing).
