Public bug reported:

I first tried installing Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit (Alternate) from Windows 7
via Unetbootin 494, both with Hard drive option and USB one. But in both
cases it gave Cd-rom related errors after language and keyboard
selection (No common Cd-rom drive was detected in case of HDD, Error
reading data from Cd-rom in case of USB). I tried adding "cdrom-detect
/try-usb=true" in the menu both times, but got the same error. The ISO's
MD5 was matched, and it was not corrupt as I burnt the same file later
and installed successfully. This was on a Dell Inspiron 1564

Now I am trying to install 32-bit version (alternate) of 10.10 via Hard
drive method (Unetbootin 494 on Ubuntu 10.04), and I get the same [No
Common Cd-rom drive was detected) error. MD5 again matched error. On
this machine I can't use USB or Cd, so this is the only choice.

Is there a workaround for this until this is resolved?
