You need to do this syslinux -ma E: only the first time to create the key.
After that, everything will be ok (no need to do it each time you want to flash).
You know, an USB key cannot boot without any action ... you need to install (only the first time) the bootloader on it.
So let's try this ...
1/ uncompress the Archive on C:\ from XP (or Vista) oki ?
2/ Go into C:\KodaKey_v0.1_EN\INSTALL
3/ Format the key as explained in first post(launch HPUSBFW.EXE ...)
4/ click on Start/Run (or Execute, i can't remember the XP menu in English Version) and type cmd then you will have the DOS window (don't be afraid of this black window ... you need typing just one or two commands).
5/ type cd \KodaKey_v0.1_EN\INSTALL ... and you will be in the right place
6/ type syslinux -ma E: ... if you USB key was E: when you have formatted it (2mn ago)
7/ With your explorer ... drag&drop all the files&directories from C:\KodaKey_v0.1_EN\ to your key
That's all ... and you must this only one time ... the first time.
After that ... your key will be bootable and you will never to do this again (except for a new key) !
This is quite simple ? No ?
What can i do more simple ?
(i really can't simplify it with an automatic script (one click) because for one the key will be in D: , for others in E: and so on)





(launch HPUSBFW.EXE ...)
