I can confirm Oneiric images made with usb-creator boot on iMac9,2 and
MacbookAir3,2, which have EFI 1.4 and 2.0, respectively.

Hi :)
I can made USB with just dd and Ubuntu 11.10 Beta ISO. It works. It boots and
install properly in EFI mode on my Mac! After install there is EFI GRUB2
displayed after reboot :)
Pendrive made like that boots on EFI 1.x, old BIOS, and I think it will boot on
UEFI 2.x too :)

If I understood mjg59's posts on EFI correctly, you don't actually need
the hybrid monstrosity to support EFI. Several of the more insidious
features of the mjg59's hybrid were only needed to support the scenario
where you directly dd an ISO onto a USB drive.
In fact, based on some quick
The latter bit isn't true; current Chrome OS developer firmware will allow
you to boot any developer-signed USB stick.
But it is true that these have to be laid out so that the Chrome OS firmware
understands them, which means EFI, the particular GPT layout, etc. not as a
standard El Torito image
I intentionally don't want to attempt to support Macs using EFI. There
are too many problems, and for the time being it's generally still

I think being unable create USB images of official Ubuntu ISOs is an
actual deficiency and not just a wish.

The issue remains with the oneiric daily ISOs from 2011-07-19 (post-
alpha 2)
I am trying to boot a MacBookPro 6,2
In each case I used usb-creator-gtk 0.2.30 on a host system (amd64) also
running Oneiric dev branch (up-to-date as of 2011-07-20)
I tried
oneiric-desktop-amd64+mac.iso

It would be great if some could test this with either the Alpha 2 image
of Oneiric or a daily build. Thanks in advance!

I am creating the bootable USB stick in Ubuntu 10.10 and can successfully
(U)EFI-boot 11.04 beta from the stick...
I have to mention I am not on a Mac but an Intel Board with Q67 chipset and
UEFI BIOS support...
