[Bug 1556599] Re: ISO images don't have valid partition tables

2016-10-05 Thread Simon Quigley
I'm not sure this is a bug, and I can successfully do this on my
machine. Try seeking support on #kubuntu on IRC or by emailing kubuntu-
us...@lists.ubuntu.com.

Marking as invalid until there is proof stating otherwise.
