I added the repository lines and upgraded usb-creator to Evan Dandreas version. After 30 minutes the creation had advanced to 22% (tried about three times) so it didn't work for me. I uninstalled usb-creeator, unticked the deb-lines and installed the "original" version.
This time the creation took about 15-20 minutes and this time it did work. I remember it did it quite faster at first NO GO -versions. The grub I had left was from previous "real" installation of Ubuntu on the flash drive. Obviously the usb-creator doesn't create a fresh MBR as John Ward says but Evans version does. apt-get doesn't remove every depedencies when uninstalling a program and maybe there was something good left from Evans version. Or the 30 minutes trials at the beginning did it. -- "Create a USB startup disk" does not create bootable USB sticks - GRUB Error 17 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285713 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
