You may have to run "syslinux -s /dev/sdd1". I forget where I

automatically, but it has not make it to F8 yet.

The livecd-iso-to-disk script does take care of this for you so I'm not
surprised. If there are no errors generated then the USB drive and MB
BIOS may just not like each other. If you can afford to buy a different
brand usb memory stick I would try that. I use a 4GB Corsair Flash
Voyager stick and it works fine in my HP 8510 laptop.

I am trying to find where it said that again, but I know I had to do
it to make it work on my system when I used the livecd-iso-to-disk
script from the F9 live CD and an F8 system. The latest syslinux for
F8 is livecd-iso-to-disk script and you need version 3.5.0 or later
for it to work. (The F8 livecd-iso-to-disk script does not support
persistent overlays.
There is a good howto at:
