I need to note that we should use software which writes ISO to the
flash-drive on the binary level (this means without any custom boot-
loaders on top of included into ISO).

I have used GNOME Disks (`gnome-disks`, *Restore Disk Image*) and `ddrescue` 
(with command link `sudo ddrescue groovy-desktop-amd64.iso /dev/sdZ --force`) 
to write latest Ubuntu MATE ISO to the flash-drive. 
Below are the current results for todays 20200714 build ( 
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-mate/daily-live/20200714/groovy-desktop-amd64.iso
 , 
http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/413/builds/217010/testcases/1303/results
 ) :

* ThinkPad SL500, legacy only, boot and operate normally;
* VAIO F13, legacy only, boot and operate normally;
* Asustek UX32A, EFI, boot and operate normally;
* Asustek UX32A, legacy, boot and operate normally;
* desktop AsRock G41M-VS2, Core2Duo Q9400 - legacy only, boot and operate 
normally.

So my systems boot normally with ISOs newer than 20200709.

What is really strange here is that Rufus is a recommended way for
Windows - https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows .
