I purchased a 128GB flash drive. I can't get Mondo to write to it. I want to be able to make this device bootable. Do I need it reformat it from a Windows file system to ext4? I never had to format a blank DVD previously.

Is there a better solution for backing up a home system to some sort of external media?

I don't know if it is better, but I use BackupPC. This has an archive option to copy the latest backup to somewhere else. I use it to backup to an external drive every fortnight or so. (I backup every night to a different hard drive on my CentOS machine.)
