USB install don't work

I'm trying to install arch from the latest images (2009.08), I tried the core and the netinstall.

I'm using a Lenovo Thinkpad T61, booting from usb key.

I used the following command:

sudo dd bs=8M if=archlinux-2009.08-netinstall-x86_64.img of=/dev/sdb1

to copy the image on the usb key.

When booting on the usb key, GRUB is printed on the screen, and nothing else happen.

Please tell me what you think about this.

Forget it. It was /dev/sdb and not sdb1.
