worked perfect, thanks!

Indeed i had tried "dd" to the partition /dev/sdb1.
When "dd" was aplied to /dev/sdb, all went well.
GoboLinux_beta3 running, problem solved.

partition. If you have a FAT partition on the USB device as /dev/sdb1, then
you will want to run "dd of=/dev/sdb" as opposed to "dd of=/dev/sdb1".
