It looks like the USB stick i'm using has the same issue, according to fdisk
-l:
0 pip:~# fdisk -l /dev/sdc
Disk /dev/sdc: 1031 MB, 1031798784 bytes
16 heads, 32 sectors/track, 3936 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 512 * 512 = 262144 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00000000
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdc1 1 3936 1007600 c W95 FAT32 (LBA)
0 pip:~#
Any suggestions for what can be done to work around this?
