Ah! "The best laid plans of mice and men ...."
I'm not quite sure what they mean by uninstallable. ;-)
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
unetbootin: Depends: libqt4-network (>= 4.4.0) but it is not installable
Depends: libqtcore4 (>= 4.4.0) but it is not installable
Depends: libqtgui4 (>= 4.4.0) but it is not installable
In addition just after I sent the original message I thought: well
there isn't that much difference between a CF and a USB ... so I ran
the live install against the usb. It seemed to go fine but will not
boot. Boot partition is 800 Mb and the other partition takes up all the
rest of the 4G.
I'm beginning to think the path of least resistance is to unplug my
drives on the desktop machine, boot against the live-CD and simply
install to the SATA drive I'm going to use with the D510.
