Maverick's release notes say: "It is not possible to create Ubuntu 10.04 USB disks from the Startup Disk Creator in Ubuntu 10.10 due to a backwards incompatibility in the syslinux program." Not sure about why you can't create Maverick live USBs.
** Description changed: Binary package hint: usb-creator I am trying to run usb-creator-gtk to create either a Maverick 32bit or Karmic 32bit LIVE CD on my USB Flash Drive or Hard Drive but when usb- creator-gtk FINISHES it says "Failed to install the bootloader". I find all the files placed on my USB but when I try to boot it says there is no bootloader found. I have tried usb-creator-gtk with BOTH reserving extra space option and discarding extra space option I have tried usb-creator-gtk -n & usb-creator-gtk -s It is still not working. - Below is my info: - - phillipguy@phillipguy-laptop:~$ uname --all - Linux phillipguy-laptop 2.6.35-22-generic #35-Ubuntu SMP Sat Oct 16 20:45:36 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux - phillipguy@phillipguy-laptop:~$ usb-creator-gtk --version - 0.2.23 - phillipguy@phillipguy-laptop:~$ parted --version - parted (GNU parted) 2.3 - Copyright (C) 2010 Free Software Foundation, Inc. - License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html>. - This is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it. - There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law. - - Written by <http://git.debian.org/?p=parted/parted.git;a=blob_plain;f=AUTHORS>. - phillipguy@phillipguy-laptop:~$ apt-cache policy usb-creator-gtk - usb-creator-gtk: - Installed: 0.2.25 - Candidate: 0.2.25 - Version table: - *** 0.2.25 0 - 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick/main amd64 Packages - 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status - phillipguy@phillipguy-laptop:~$ apt-cache policy parted - parted: - Installed: 2.3-2ubuntu2 - Candidate: 2.3-2ubuntu2 - Version table: - *** 2.3-2ubuntu2 0 - 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick-updates/main amd64 Packages - 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status - 2.3-2ubuntu1 0 - 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick/main amd64 Packages - - phillipguy@phillipguy-laptop:~$ lsb_release -rd - Description: Ubuntu 10.10 - Release: 10.10 - phillipguy@phillipguy-laptop:~$ ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.10 Package: usb-creator-gtk 0.2.25 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.35-22.35-generic 2.6.35.4 Uname: Linux 2.6.35-22-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Architecture: amd64 Date: Sat Feb 19 21:29:27 2011 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS "Lucid Lynx" - Release amd64 (20100816.1) PackageArchitecture: all ProcEnviron: - LANG=en_US.utf8 - SHELL=/bin/bash + LANG=en_US.utf8 + SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: usb-creator -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/722019 Title: Failed to install the bootloader -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
