Public bug reported:

[Jaunty Beta] usb-creator 0.1.15 results in no usable usb-stick: booting
the usb-stick falls back to BusyBox' CLI.

Long story:

I booted Jaunty Beta from CD, then started usb-creator (0.1.15) to create a 
usb-live stick (on a 2 GB device). Somewhere after completing 35-39%, the GUI 
said everything was OK and I could reboot from the stick.
Rebooting from the stick results in the usual live selection (language and 
type), then the new Michael Knight KITT light, and then ... the BusyBox command 
line. :-(
 I tried another time, now with a bit less persistent space, ... same result: 
BusyBox' commandline.

FWIW: du reports 700 MB in use on the live stick, so it looks all
information is written.


I then booted good old 8.10, and used 8.10's usb-creator and a 9.04 CD as image 
to create a 9.04 live USB stick, booted that, and ... everything is OK. I'm 
typing this on Jaunty running off a live usb stick.

So, there is something wroing in Jaunty Beta's usb-creator 0.1.15
