[arch-general] Another 'gotta be something idiotic': trying to create bootable USB thumb drive

Hi all,

I can't believe I'm having trouble with this. I'm trying to follow the
directions at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/USB_Installation_Media

Specifically:

dd bs=4M if=/path/to/archlinux.iso of=/dev/sdx

Which I translate to:

sudo dd bs=4M if=Downloads/archlinux-2013.04.01-dual.iso of=/dev/sdb
dd: failed to open ‘/dev/sdb’: No medium found

And you see the result. /dev/sdb does indeed exist and is writable.
It's a brand new 4GB flash drive and I moved the crap that came
preloaded on it somewhere else before dismounting it. Here's the dmesg
snippet:
