FWIW, my 32GB Cruzer formatted in Windows has this geometry:

,-----
| Disk /dev/sdd: 32.4 GB, 32491175424 bytes
| 32 heads, 32 sectors/track, 61971 cylinders
| Units = cylinders of 1024 * 512 = 524288 bytes
| Disk identifier: 0xcb82bec9
| 
|    Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
| /dev/sdd1   *           1       61972    31729647+   b  W95 FAT32
`-----

So far I haven't had any problems booting it on machines that can boot
off USB.
