Unable to install icaros 1.5.1 in USB stick

[AmigaClassicRule]

I formatted the memory stick into FAT32 and under vmware player I ran icaros desktop. I even set all the USB ports configuration in vmware and when I tried to run the "Create Installation Pendrive" I get the following error message "An AROS formatted pendrive has not been connected to the system. Please read chapter 3 of Icaros user manual and run this script again, when ready." The USB stick does not even show in icaros desktop. So I decided to run Icaros directly from the file Win32-START.bat only to be greeted with the same error message no matter what approach I am doing.

Can someone help me on this please? Where am I going wrong? I would love to make a USB bootable of Icaros 1.5.1 if possible.

Thanks in advance.

I doubt that Poseidon supports vmware USB ports. You'll need to do this on your real machine (boot your PC from the Icaros DVD).

Oooh It is one of those huh? What if I want to use it in a laptop that have no optical device storage? Do I first boot it in a different computer with optical storage install it in a memory stick then use the memory stick in that laptop with no optical storage?
