Hello


You can't put a CD File System on a flash drive because of the way the a CD is accessed. Unlike conventional drives, a CD is just one continuous track not much unlike the old vinyl records were.


Because there are no addressable tracks and sectors it wont work. The only way you could make it work would be to write your own driver.

actualy, you can put CDFS on flash drive. But i wonder how to do that my self too. It's been done by U3 smart disk creators. When you put a usb flash drive - CD drive installs automaticly and no program finds connection to the drive - look like different disks. Only way to do a full flash drive format is by using linux live CD or other linux program, to format entire disk before install. You need system, that doesnt suport these smart drives.
