Public bug reported:

This bug occurs when booting either (1) using the desktop CD (Ubuntu10.04), or
(2) when booting off a USB stick previously created on another machine using 
the Startup Disk Creator 
program (usb-creator) (also Ubuntu10.04).

When booting from either of these sources, the machine actually mounts 
/dev/sdb4 (as /cdrom) and
I believe it actually boots from that partition.

When I delete the partition /dev/sdb4, and then reboot from the CD or USB stick,
 then the machine seems to boot from the CD or the USB stick respectively.

The partition /dev/sdb4 contains the results of yet another failed attempt to 
install Ubuntu 10.04, 
as per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux
