** Description changed:
- Binary package hint: usb-creator
+ I'm reviving this report since the issue is still present in 14.04 and
+ 15.10 syslinux, which is used in the various flavour hybrid ISOs, via
+ mbr/isohdpfx.{S,bin}
- Description: Ubuntu intrepid (development branch + Final
- Release: 8.10
- ---
+ The same system I originally reported in comment #30 is still affected.
- usb-creator:
- Installed: 0.1.7
- (for some reason, running "usb-creator --version" gives me 0.1.5)
- ---
+ The patch that was applied to upstream syslinux MBRs in 2009 as a result
+ of this (holding down Ctrl key to force boot device 0x80) is no longer
+ present, although the MBR source does contain the definition for reading
+ the keyboard state:
- I have a feeling this maybe a duplicate of Bug #273477 .
- After using usb-creator on a 2gb Flash drive, with default settings, it
notifies me to reboot.
- When I boot from my flash drive, I get the text message, "Missing Operating
System."
