What capacity and USB version would I need to install a Haiku image onto a
USB stick?
I dd'ed the anyboot image for R1A4 onto a 4 GB USB 2.0 stick, and that was
OK.
What would I need for r1beta1 and for head/master, for x86_gcc2 hybrid and
for x86_64?
Now USB drives are coming out with USB 3.1 Gen 1 and Gen 2 support. I
have only up to USB 3.0 (same as USB 3.1 Gen 1?). But would USB 3.0 or 3.1
work with Haiku, or do I need to stick with USB 2.0?
I believe I read on the emailing list about needing 16 GB for x68_64 (?)

Most should work. But be careful of ones that try to autoinstall programs
on Windows. Those often times create a fake cdrom device or regular but
read only partition and won't along you to make the device bootable. I ran
into two different such USB drives when trying to make mine.
