Yes, I have have made the SanDisk Ultra Fit 3.0 32GB stick a U2B drive.
I copied the Linux Mint Cinnamon 17.1 ISO to the U2B Main Menu.
When I boot the SanDisk USB stick, the U2B Main Menu opens.
I select “linuxmint-17.1-cinnamon-32bit(1)”
I get the “LM” symbol on the screen.
Then “(intramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system”
Same as all other tried methods of booting Linux from a SanDisk Ultra Fit.
However, a PNY 2.0 8GB drive boots without fail.
