I think this bug (1325801) is fixed for the Ubuntu Startup Disk Creator
- in 15.04. At least it is announced as fixed. Probably the bug-fix will
trickle down to 14.10 and 14.04.3 LTS. But right now it is not there in
14.04.2 LTS. I have not enabled proposed - but you are right, the
bug-fix might be available there.
Nio, and all:
I created a USB drive of Xubuntu 15.04, using startup disk creator on a
fully-updated ubuntuGnome 15.04 system, and encountered the same
problem. The USB drive is no longer bootable after installing from it.
And in this case, it also warned me about my media being on sdb1, which
limited my usage of that drive in the manual partitioning.
I ran another test where I created (on Lubuntu 14.04, using Unetbootin),
an ubuntuMATE 15.04 USB drive, but with no persistent storage, and
installed from it, and the USB drive remained bootable.
Hi Aere,
I have the same experience as you. A couple of days ago the Ubuntu
Startup Disk Creator failed for me again (in 14.04.2 trying to install
15.04). Unetbootin from the developer's PPA works well, and mkusb works
well.
What trickled down a couple of days ago did not pass the test. See this link
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-creator/+bug/1325801
comment #117 and the following comments.
Best regards
Nio
Nio:
I think my case is different.
In my case, I used the startup disk creator on a working (and
fully-updated) 15.04 system, so there should not be an incompatibility
with the bootloader.
It was an UbuntuGnome 15.04 system I built the USB drive on. Would
there be an incompatibility between the bootloader on UbuntuGnome 15.04,
as opposed to Xubuntu 15.04?
The USB drive created this way did boot successfully on a machine, and I
was able to install (and test) software in the persistent storage.
But when I booted that USB drive (successfully) on another machine, and
actually installed a Xubuntu 15.04 system to that machine's hard-drive,
after (successfully) doing so, the next time I tried to boot the USB
drive, it got the kernel panic error I reported before.
There appears to be something done during system installation (and
manual partitioning) of the target machine's hard-drive that corrupts
the USB drive containing the installation media. There was no such
problem when I had no persistent storage space on the USB drive (I only
tried this once).
