Hi flocculant, If you don't think it is a real bug, please try to make a working boot pendrive with Wily, while you are running a Vivid or Wily system! (Trying from Trusty, there is well-known bug ...) Chris Hermansen was the one who first found this bug, when running the SDC in an amd64 Vivid installed system. I encountered this bug in a live Wily system (live-only, no persistence, made from a Lubuntu Wily beta2 i386 iso file). It would be great if you can find a work-around or some environment, where the SDC can make a working boot pendrive with Wily. Maybe it is simple. At least, that should make it easier to debug. Such a work-around can also be added to the release notes and other help texts.
