The path to your device node appears to contain unicode.  Is that an 
e-mail artifact, or did you feed a unicode path to dd?  This is why I 
said "paste your console session into a reply" -- so we can verify the 
command that was actually run.

Plain 'ls' isn't very useful.  The -l switch provides more information.


Please unplug all extraneous USB devices, leave the Kingston drive 
plugged in, run the following commands, and paste your console session 
into a reply:

# ls -l /dev/sdc

# lsusb


What happens if you connect the Kingston drive into a Windows machine?
