Recently I've noticed a fair number of customers having issues with multiple flash drives not wanting to boot properly on the SG-1100. I suspect there is a new revision of a flash controller or something that is causing headaches for end users. Nearly all of these situations can be resolved by running an extra "usb reset" command before running "run usbrecovery". This "kicks" many of these flash drives into behaving. We should add this as a note in the recovery docs stating "if you are having issues getting your flash drive to boot, please try running "usb reset" and then the recovery command to see if this resolves your issue".
