I have not been able to use UnetBootin with the latest versions. Like
Daniel, i suspect these may be related to using UnetBootin. Try with dd
command:
dd if=*.iso of=/dev/sdX (without the number of the partition, for
example, sdb instead of sdb1)
Type "fdisk -l" to get sdX. Just in case, first do it hybrid:
isohybrid devuan*.iso
You need to install syslinux and syslinux-utils.
Aitor.

Why didn't you just use dd (or even cat) to just dump the iso onto the
usbstick.

I suspect these may be related to using unetbootin instead of just using
dd to write the image to your usb stick. If doing this doesn't solve
the issue, then please file an issue here:

Thanks,
