Haven't tried the m7 or privioys m but you can give dd commands a try..

Jus tnavigate to the directory from terminal (cd)

and then
Code: 
dd if=opensuseimage.iso off=/media/sdx

Generate the USB mount point from
Code: 
mount
option and then replace it in the above DD commands..

Best of luck with m7 :p. I thought you were sabayon tester ?:p

The dd method's not working. Get a weird mbr not detected/yadda yadda yadda error message. Not at my laptop, will post the message once I get to it.

And yeah, openSUSE's always my first love :hap2:

M8 seems to be the first release to have "official" boot from USB flash disk support. Will try it.

Keep in mind most annoying bugs
