[Bug 722019] Re: Failed to install the bootloader

[John John Doe]

I have the same problem running Startup Disk Creator 0.2.23 on Ubuntu
Precise 12.04. I also tried `usb-creator-gtk --allow-system-internal`,
however, the same error message "Installation Failed. An uncaught
exception was raised: Invalid version string 'GNU/LINUX'" pops up.

Title:
  Failed to install the bootloader

Status in “usb-creator” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: usb-creator

  I am trying to run usb-creator-gtk to create either a Maverick 32bit
  or Karmic 32bit LIVE CD on my USB Flash Drive or Hard Drive but when
  usb-creator-gtk FINISHES it says "Failed to install the bootloader". I
  find all the files placed on my USB but when I try to boot it says
  there is no bootloader found.

  I have tried usb-creator-gtk with BOTH reserving extra space option and discarding extra space option
  I have tried usb-creator-gtk -n & usb-creator-gtk -s
  It is still not working.
