What to do about my flash drive?

Asked by Skidbladnir

I do not have a CD RW, so I can't create the boot disk.

Should I upload the .iso file to the flash drive? I haven't been able to get that to work. I tried booting from it in the BIOS menu, set the default load-from-thing to 'USB-whatever', and even tried OS Install Mode on. Every time, it just stays blank, and yes, I do have everything else USB disconnected.

I haven't been able to get it working. Please help me!

There is a program call Unetbootin (http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net) it will help you making the USB Live Disk in your Pen Drive USB.

Or from the Ubuntu Live CD, format your Pen Drive USB to FAT32 and then go to "System > Administration > Create a USB Start Up Disk" and follow the steps.

Can you help with this problem?
