Hello,

I have used the method in the following url to create a
trisquel-modified.iso.
http://trisquel.info/en/wiki/customizing-trisquel-iso

I wrote trisquel-modified.iso in a cdrom and it boots fine without any
problems.

Then I used my usb stick and did the following. (The usb stick was having
one FAT32 partition).
dd if=trisquel-modified.iso of=/dev/sdb1

It wrote the contents of trisquel-modified.iso to sdb1. Then I tried
booting from the usb stick, but it never boot. It is just showing the
screen "Loading the Operating System..." and it stays there.

Please help me to know, what is wrong here.

Thanks.

Use the Ubuntu "Startup Disk Creator" (usb-creator-gtk) for a USB that
boots and installs

That's not my intention. I would like to know whether it is possible to
boot trisquel-modified.iso from a usb stick that is having iso9660
filesystem. This is the reason I did the following:

dd if=trisquel-modified.iso of=/dev/sdb1

Unless the iso is designed to do this it will not work. The bios loads the boot sector and the boot sector tells the bios I am in the CD drive when it is not.

A bit of artistry is needed. I think this was first worked out successfully by Mika Prokop and the Grml Team http://grml.org

I have customized the distro and made the trisquel-modified.iso. So I
cannot move to a new distro now. So can you please tell me exactly what I
have to do with the iso to achieve this ?

By the way, I have tried the following too. But this made the usb-stick
undetected.

dd if=trisquel-modified.iso of=/dev/sdb
