Hi Paul,

I created a USB boot drive by cloning with mkusb from

ToriOS-1.5-jessie.iso

with the md5sum

e458c796f8d16e5fe95a7a0ee60d9d16

to a Sandisk Cruzer 4 GB pendrive.

'Cloning is cloning', so cloning with dd should give exactly the same 
result (if you use the correct command line).

This USB boot drive works for me. I tested it in an ASUS eeePC 900 
netbook (with 32-bit hardware), and also in an Intel NUC (with 64-bit 
hardware).

Best regards
Nio
