IRONKEY BASIC USER GUIDE
Description
Your IronKey can be initialized on Linux 2.6+ (x86 systems
only). It can also be set up and used on Windows and a Mac.
To use the full speed of the IronKey, plug it into a USB 2.0
port.
The IronKey has a virtual CD-ROM.
You must start the IronKey Unlocker manually by going to
the linux folder and running ironkey.
The IronKey's End-User License Agreement appears. Scroll
to the end of the agreement, and press Q to exit viewing
the agreement. Press Y (Yes) to agree to its terms. (It's also
online at: https://www.ironkey.com/terms)
Because you can have multiple IronKeys, the nickname helps
you distinguish between different IronKey devices.
Your password is case-sensitive and must be at least 4
characters long . The threat of brute-force password
attacks is removed by the IronKey's self-destruct feature.
During this process, it generates the AES encryption key,
and creates the file system for the secure volume.
This process might take a minute.
