Hi

I am using a hardy desktop with an intrepid usb-creator deb.
It installed without complaint.
ii usb-creator 0.1.10 Ubuntu USB desktop image creator

I've made a jaunty-alpha6 alternate x86 iso onto a stick with usb-creator which did not boot
at all. The dell optiplex 760 said no operating system found.

I remade the usb stick with unetbootin with both jaunty-alpha6 and intrepid
(both alternate amd64) and they both boot.

Both get stuck at cdrom-detect.
I described some experience here (Jan Groenewald's posts)
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/260672

I then found this thread and patch, http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14665232/cdrom-detect.postinst.usb-detect.patch
and patched and repacked cdrom-detect and put it in pool/ , and put that on the stick, but it still stops
at cdrom-detect.
