[xubuntu-users] USB boot disc?

[James Freer]

I have just found that the CD-ROM of mine seems to have died just when
i wanted to install the last version of xubuntu. So haven't been able
to burn a CD.

Installed USB-CREATOR and followed the instructions [all seemed to
copy over ok] but the flashdrive does not seem to boot up. I have been
into setup so it boots first to flashdrive and then HDD. Just boots up
on HDD... the old version on xubuntu.

I remember trying this a few years ago and had the same problem so
just continued with burning an ISO to CDROM [DVD]. I would be very
grateful for some guidance. What else can i try? Can one put the iso
on a hard drive?
