Public bug reported:
Hi,
I've noticed that one of my scripts, that creates bootable USB pendrives
and worked for ages stopped to work under 15.10.
I've tracked this down to a problem with syslinux. See the script
attached.
Under ubuntu 14.04 the script works, it creates a usb pendrive, that
properly boots into syslinux (as expected to the point where it
complains about the missing config file, test script does not install a
configuration file).
But under ubuntu 15.10 the boot process aborts after the
SYSLINUX 6.03 EDD 20150813 ...
line with
Boot error
(testing with a 8GB usb pendrive)
