Have you followed the instructions in Etch's installation manual? I followed them and they worked fine. I did the long-way with partitioning and creating the fs, not just zcatting the .img file. I found that I needed to install-mbr just like the instructions said I might. In fact, every time I changed something, I had to install-mbr. Mine is a Kingston Data Traveler 2 GB.
