Thank you for your ansewer .
Your way works definitely.
and i did find a way to take any USB and turn it to be used with CISCO ASR 1000 router.
steps:
1- Partition your USB to 1-2 GB
2-Make that Partition Primary (and only Partition on the USB ,that means you will have unused space)
3-fat format FAT16 with clustersize 32KB.
4-make sure your USB ist USB1.1 compatible.
5-enjoy.
