I was able to get the current ISO to work with LinuxLive USB Creator.  The 
same thing that happened to Darryl where the key was messed up after 
installing happened to me.  I have been able to recover it in Windows by 
creating a Simple Volume on the key under Disk Management.

I want to use the x86_64 version, so I'll just put up with the quirk of LUC 
until I have time to try something else.


Thanks!
Joseph B.
