pool/main/l/linux-signed-lts-quantal/linux-signed-
image-3.5.0-23-generic_3.5.0-23.35~precise1_amd64.deb

This appears to be the .deb in the pool with the longest file path, at
104 characters.  This also exceeds the purported limit on long Joliet
filenames according to the genisoimage manpage (103 characters).

However, this is a limit only on Joliet extensions, it is *not* a
limitation on filenames using Rock Ridge extensions; and Ubuntu images
are built with both, with Rock Ridge taking precedence at mount time
under Linux.  So if this file is giving problems, I suspect that the
image has been damaged by the tools used to create the USB image.

I have booted the 12.04.2 server image locally under a VM, both as a CD
ROM device and as a USB device, and it passes the disc defect check in
both modes.

Please use a more reliable method for mastering your USB image:
 - Startup Disk Creator in Ubuntu
 - writing it to a CD instead of to a USB stick
 - writing it to the USB disk with a raw write tool, instead of a tool that 
(apparently) modifies the image when writing it out.
