The install exe goes completely thru the process, but when all is said & done there's only 8mb on the drive.......the image hasn't been put on the flash drive -
The purpose of the ImageUSB software is to copy the disk image file (xxxx.img) to a USB drive and make the USB drive bootable.is it normal for the image file NOT to install to the flash drive?
So if it didn't do this, that would not be normal. But from your screen shot it it says, "Imaging complete". So it looks like it worked OK.
The formatting information is actually part of the .img file.the install exe also is formatting the flash drive (2gig) down to 250mb.
So ImageUSB doesn't format the drive as such, it just copies the existing formatting from the source disk image.
But, yes, this will overwrite any existing formatting / partitioning on the drive. It doesn't effect the physical capacity of the drive however and you can wipe the drive to return it to full capacity.

Incomplete install procedure
Hello there:
when one is going thru the procedure for the exe to install program to USB drive is it normal for the image file NOT to install to the flash drive?
I don't know if the issue is because I am using a 64bit system to create the flash drive program, the install exe also is formatting the flash drive (2gig) down to 250mb.
All that is installing is approx 8 mb of program....(help folder & EFI folder), nothing else at all.
