Title:
  syslinux install is broken on kubuntu 15.10 beta1

Status in casper package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  syslinux -if /dev/sdb1

  finishes fine but when starting the usb flashdrive it simply says
  "boot error"

  performing the same step on a 14.04 machine and the usb flashdrive is
  able to show me the syslinux options and boot properly.


  uname -a
  Linux wald 4.1.0-3-generic #3-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jul 28 12:25:10 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

  dpkg -l|grep syslinux
  ii  syslinux                                                    3:6.03+dfsg-8ubuntu2

  
  --------------
  using the start-disk-creator (usb-creator-kde) leads to the same result..  the created flashdrive doesn't boot.
