Package: unetbootin
Version: 408-1
Severity: normal
got an usb stick used with unetbootin befor to install ubuntu.
while proceeding unetbootin prompted about already existing files and
proposed to overwrite All, which i accepted.
but when trying to actually boot from the stick, i got a prompt saying
"No DEFAULT or UI configuration directive found!"
seemingly related to syslinux being too old.
checking the stick's contents revealed that several files were, in fact,
not overwritte -- cointrary to what unetbootin led me to believe.
i removed manually everything and run unetbootin again.
after that it worked as expected.
