Cannot Boot From Classmate 2011 USB Drive to Image

[nick1023]

I am unable to boot our 2010 Classmate off of the flash drive labeled "2011 Image for '10 Classmate" from the KOP.

Current Process to arrive at error:
Attach usb drive to USB port
Turn on Classmate
Press F11 to get boot menu
Select "USB: USB DISK"
System displays "Press ESC to Boot" with a countdown timer

Letting the timer go to zero results in the Classmate using the next available boot option (Booting to the HDD). Press "ESC" Does the same.

Troubleshooting Steps Tried:
I am able to boot off of the 2010 USB drive. The imaging software loads OK.
Tried both USB ports on the classmate
I am able to open and view the contents of the USB Drive.

The only thing I've noticed is when I put in the 2010 USB device I get the following options at the "please select a device" boot screen:

HDD: PM-SanDisk pSSD 16GB
USB:SanDisk U3 Cruzer Micro 8.0
USB:SanDisk U3 Cruzer Micro 8.0
USB:Generic- Multi-Card
Network: Realtek Boot Agent

but when I put in the 2011 USB device I get:

"HDD: PM-SanDisk pSSD 16GB"
USB: USB Disk
USB:Generic- Multi-Card
Network: Realtek Boot Agent


What shows up in your "Please select boot device" screen when you put your 2011 image for '10 classmate" USB drive into your 2010 Classmate?

If there's a utility to reimage your flashdrive I dont know where it is or which company is creating and maintaining these images for FIRST.

My guess is I will be reporting the USB device as "damaged" according to the KOP return instructions.

Thanks
