Hi OJ,

I am sorry I did not attach the exact error message.  I did not have computer access at the time.

Here comes the exact error message:

-- begin: error message --

  rEFIt - Booting Legacy OS

The firmware refused to boot from the selcted volume. Note that external
hard drives are not well-supported by Apple's firmware for legacy OS booting.

OK so far.

Good.

Not good.

Sorry to say that, but without a crystal ball no one will be able to
help. Maybe you should tell the *exact* error message?

Maybe you could test the stick on a non-mac computer, just to be sure
that it is working? And that this issue is (or is not) related to e.g.
GPT-Issues.

Regards,
OJ
