I have done it and working perfectly. You have taught me the conecpt about this. However I think there is something u can add in the essay You have partition 2 Linux drive at first by」 /dev/sdc1 1 132 1060258+ 83 Linux /dev/sdc2 133 242 883575 83 Linux」 then: 「mkdosfs -F 32 /dev/sdc1〞to change back to FAT32 But if I partition the USB like this it will become non-bootable, even i have used the bootinsh. For my 8GB USB, I create a 7GB partition with FAT32 BT3 and 1GB is empty under Windows at first. So I can just simple create ext2 parition under BT3 and skip the file copying step, everything goes perfect :) Also, u said that 「It is possible to skip this step and copy BT3 and boot folders in other way. As you do copying in Windows. Well, just copy these two folders to your new and empty USB. The copying will take a few minutes」 At that time, if u remove the usb and plug in to another Windows machine to copy file then u plug it back to BT3, the /dev name has been changed(My another fatal mistake!!), so I think you should also mention it 「the /dev name will be changed if you copy the BT3 and root folder in the other machine under Windows」 that's all Thanks! I have made it :) Have a nice day! (Sorry for my bad English.) [Fixed Version, some words were missing, sorry for double post]

You have partition 2 Linux drive at first by」
/dev/sdc1 1 132 1060258+ 83 Linux
/dev/sdc2 133 242 883575 83 Linux」

then:
「mkdosfs -F 32 /dev/sdc1〞to change back to FAT32

But if I partition the USB like this it will become non-bootable, even i have used the bootinsh.

But according to this tutorial you shouldn't get any errors. It took my hours to install but I have been reading and doing it. Bootinst.bat u can run in Windowns, bootinst.sh in Linux.
