Ensure the partition contains the full capacity of the device.

Depending on who made the Flash Drive it's possible that it isn't a Full 2 Gig but one of the ones that compresses Data to give the impression that it is 2 GIG Capacity.

If that is the case you'll need to reinstall the same Partitions and Software that originally came on the device to get anywhere near the stated capacity.
