[Bug 1446646] Re: Vivid usb-creator fails to install bootloader
Right, this explodes because the architecture you're running on doesn't allow starting executables of the architecture you're trying to burn on the USB disk. Thanks for filing this bug, this is a genuine issue that we had not anticipated in the other bug you linked -- marking Triaged/High. For now, you may wish to use dd to create these images; for example: $ dd if=ubuntu-15.04-desktop-amd64.iso of=/dev/sdz bs=512 Will write the image to the USB device directly -- remember to make sure you pick the right device instead of /dev/sdz which should be your USB disk; since dd will happily write the contents of the image where you tell it to without confirmation. If you pick the wrong disk, you can say bye-bye to your data now. ** Changed in: usb-creator (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Triaged ** Summary changed: - Vivid usb-creator fails to install bootloader + usb-creator fails to run syslinux due to architecture mismatch ** Also affects: usb-creator (Ubuntu Vivid) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: usb-creator (Ubuntu Trusty) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: usb-creator (Ubuntu Precise) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: usb-creator (Ubuntu Precise) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: usb-creator (Ubuntu Trusty) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: usb-creator (Ubuntu Vivid) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: usb-creator (Ubuntu Precise) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: usb-creator (Ubuntu Trusty) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: usb-creator (Ubuntu Vivid) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: usb-creator (Ubuntu Precise) Importance: Medium => High -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1446646 Title: usb-creator fails to run syslinux due to architecture mismatch To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-creator/+bug/1446646/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Same error for me. Note that this only happens with the 15.04 64 bit image (which I need), but works fine with the 32bit image. Format 32bit 16g thumb drive as FAT 32.

I was unable to recreate this using usb-creator-gtk version 0.2.67. It may be worth noting that udisks --dump works for me and it failed when apport was generating this crash report.
