** Description changed:

+ == BEGIN SRU INFO ==
+ This bug prevents anybody running Lucid from using Unetbootin with a Maverick 
ISO image. 
+ 
+ The upstream developer has tested the proposed Lucid update against
+ ubuntu-10.10-rc-desktop-amd64.iso and ubuntu-10.04-desktop-i386.iso.
+ 
+ == STEPS TO REPRODUCE == 
+  0. Install unetbootin
+  1. Download any Maverick ISO later than Alpha 3, such as the RC. 
+  2. Run "unetbootin", entering your password when prompted. 
+  3. Select the "Diskimage" checkbox
+  4. Tap the "…" button to the far left on the same line.
+  5. Select the Maverick ISO image you downloaded in #1.
+  6. Either install to hard-drive or USB (change via the type menu)
+  7. Click "okay"
+  8. Reboot when prompted. 
+  9. In GRUB, select "Unetbootin" from the menu. 
+ 
+ Expected behavior: the computer boots to the Live desktop.
+ Current (broken) behavior: the computer does not boot, saying a message like 
"Can't find init".
+ 
+ == END SRU INFO ==

  Hello all,
  
  I was unable to boot Ubuntu 10.10 alpha 3 (both x32 and x64) using
  Universal Netboot Installer. I was using USB flash drive and the error
  was "Can't find init".
  
  I am pretty sure this error happens in 100% when using alpha 3 of Ubuntu
  10.10, if it does not happen, I can enable debug logs (if possible) or
  make a picture of my screen.
  
  I tried twice to reformat my USB drive in order to eliminate possible
  drive failures, but in both cases the error was the same.
  
  Here is the iso which I was trying to boot:
  http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/releases/maverick/alpha-3/maverick-
  desktop-i386.iso
  
  At the same time, I was able to boot Ubuntu 10.04 x32 - everything went
  properly. So my USB drive is working OK ...
  
  Thanks for this amazyingly useful tool!
