Hi Ian,
I think you were hit by bug #1499746 in the Startup Disk Creator.
Unetbootin and mkusb work.
And then you were hit by bug #1511376, which Phill and I have discussed
how to work around today. I think you can try 'my recipe',
-----
Running in a *real* computer I booted from the install pendrive, changed
directory to the mounted partition of the installed system and ran
sudo ln -sf /proc/self/mounts etc/mtab
(ln {space} -sf and no slash before etc works in this case)
-----
Best regards
Nio
