[Live-demo] FOSS4G Boston 2017 Assist (bootable USB)

[Brian M Hamlin]

Hi Guido -
 
  my best judgement at this time says -- do not call it 'bootable'
 
A USB thumb drive with branding is a fine thing, useful and (quietly) 
reusable too. 
I think we can make use of as much storage as the budget can get.. 
16GB, 32GB or more. 
 
  however, all things considered, we should no advertise it as a boot medium
  best regards from Berkeley, California

Hi Guido,

A vendor I have worked with in the past is Mixonic 
(http://mixonic.com). Their operations manager is Hunter 
hdreidame at mixonic.com

Last time I talked with them about cloning bootable was back in 2013, 
to remind Hunter you can reference  [Ticket#2013022810000188] Bootable 
Flash Drives?

He'll be able to let you know if they can still do them. It does 
require sending them a working master copy. Which either Brian and or I 
could possibly do. 

Thanks,
Alex
