[Wolves] usb stick and suse

[David Morley]

I had a problem like that with my usb key style mp3 player it screwed the 
filesystem on the key but I then found (after I formated the mp3 player in 
fat32) that if I copy and pasted the file rather than drag and drop it 
erradicated the problem. Hope that was of some use to you.
