Before I installed Evan's version, I tried "Create a USB startup Disk" once more on two USB drives - a Kingston Data Traveller II [4GB] and an OCZ Rally II [4GB] -
Before I started, I ran GParted [To install "sudo apt-get install gparted" - it then should be in System -> Administration as Partition Editor] and formatted the sticks with a fresh FAT32 file system. On the OCZ I created a "Documents and Settings" area of about 400MB and didn't create any on the Kingston key. Restarted my machine and everything booted and loaded fine using both sticks, the "save my changes persistence file" is genius as well, although thats for another day. Did updates recently come down for usb- creator. The last time I created sticks it cured the problem with Error 17 and I got the Ubuntu selection screen (success?) but as soon as I picked the first option, Ubuntu started loading and ran into ACPI errors. This time around I used the exact same image file but did it on a different computer and it made successful sticks that booted the whole way into Ubuntu. Thats weird in my opinion. -- "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
