So here's the deal,

I downloaded a Chrome OS .IMG file and wrote it to my flash drive, all was well, worked great.
Chrome OS is pretty basic, but it's cool.

Anyway, now, I want to format it to remove everything on it, but I'm unable to now.

Partition Guru shows an EXT3 showing 1 GB of space taken up on the flash drive.



While Windows, Mac, Ubuntu won't even let me see the partitions and whatnot.

And of course, none will let me format and/or alter the flash drive in any way.

I've Googled for hours, no program has worked yet, nuffin.

Granted I can just buy a new one, I'd like to get this one working, it's my keychain one.

Any ideas?


Windows way I've tried:
HP USB Format Tool.
Windows Format.
CMD Format.
Bunch of apps.

Mac:
Native Partition manager. (Forgot the name.)

Ubuntu:
GParted or sumfin like that.
