Well,
IMO, it may be a matter of your USB drive.
Linux may not recognize some kinds of file system format, for example, if
you USB drive is formatted to be used as a Windows PE boot disc.
Does your USB drive work properly before the upgrade? Do you change the
file system format of your USB drive?
Myabe you can try your USB drive on another Linux OS machine and see
whether your USB drive can be mounted automatically.
