  Device Boot Start     End   #cyls    #blocks   Id  System
/dev/sdc1   *      0+   1013    1014-    255500    6  FAT16
/dev/sdc2          0       -       0          0    0  Empty
/dev/sdc3          0       -       0          0    0  Empty
/dev/sdc4          0       -       0          0    0  Empty


this is table of my pendrive as it is ... so I need to change geometry to get it to boot

At the moment I get Missing Operating System which does not help much

It will boot under qemu ok ... so I am thinking its not a iso/image problem

TIA
