I'd like to make a USB hard drive bootable. I've installed LiveUSB Creator, but it says saying "Unable to find any USB drives". Does this mean it only supports USB Flash drives? Is there anyway to get it to use USB hard drives?
Thanks, Chris

I haven't tested it on USB hard drives, but the liveusb-creator does support a --force argument for cases like this.

I have tried this force argument with no success myself I was doing it under windows however. I intend to at some point use the stick I created by using an SD card (the software had no trouble identifying an SD card as removable storage) and then inserting it in a USB reader to get fedora up and running on my laptop and then create a USB hdd under fedora as opposed to windows. I have a sneaking suspicion that this will work admirably:)
