Looks like I may have stumbled on the root cause... I just tried to make a bootable FreeDOS USB stick (thanks to unetbootin) and then copy the contents of the E09 stick onto my bootable FreeDOS stick. I was unable to copy over the 4.3GB image file, and then it dawned on me, that the E09 stick is an NTFS filesystem and my 16GB stick was formated with FAT32.

My guess is that the E09 Classmate's BIOS doesn't know how to access an NTFS filesystem.

Hope I'm not just spreading rumors,
