Hi!
I’m Niko Kauppinen and I live in Finland. I work as a project manager in a IT service company.
When I’m not working I love to have quality time with my family. I am a father of two wonderful children and happily married. Music and especially guitars are my passion but I also spend (maybe too much) time on computer related things and doings.
This is my public notebook where I collect information I’ve found useful. I hope my entries will be useful for others too. And ofcourse all comments are welcome, so I could correct and improve the information.
More about me on…

‘Lx/format USB mem-Stick in Lx:
http://nikste.wordpress.com/2007/01/12/how-to-format-usb-memory-stick-in-linux/
Goo got me to your:
>> How to format USB memory stick in Linux
but it did not work for me. It says:
Permission denied while trying to determine filesystem size
‘;;
Otherwise I suggest modification of your instruction to suit
dummies like me:
0. Applications-Accessories-Terminal (Open T. window)
1. Type: fdisk -l then hit Enter (find Lx stick name; maybe: /dev/sdb1, )
(Note: experiment with the command for ‘fdisk-L, fdisk -L, etc are not equal)
2. Type: umount /dev/sdb1 (if it is mounted, i.e visible in: Places-Computer)
(Note: In Places-Computer will be different name, maybe: 2 GB media
3. Type: mkfs.ext3 /dev/sdb1 (formating into (Lx) EXT3 )
(Note: To format in FAT32 put: ???? instead of ext3. FAT32 is both Win and Lx)
4.Type: e2label /dev/sdb1 (to label your stick)
