[Bug 1512811] Re: 15.10 32 bit download gives error when run from usb

[Ilan Tal]

Finally, finally, some progress. The startup disk creator fails for 32 but 15.10 but dd works!
I can finally produce a usb stick which works.

If you can confirm the problem on your machine then we can assign the
problem to startup disk creator. From my point of view dd gives me a
solution I can live with.

Is there a way we can compare the 2 sticks, to see exactly which byte is
wrong?

Title:
  15.10 32 bit download gives error when run from usb

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  There seems to be a problem with the grub when trying to use 15.10, 32 bit downloaded from the official Ubuntu site.
  The 64 bit version works fine.
  If I take ubuntu-15.10-desktop-i386.iso and use it to define a new virtual machine in virtual box, again all works well.
  Only if I use Startup disk creator to burn it to a usb disk on key there is a problem.
  Instead of Try Ubuntu coming up I immediately get a boot error.

  I tried downloading a second version of the iso and the problem
  repeated. Also if I download xubuntu-15.10-desktop-i386.iso the
  problem also appears.
