I am trying to install ubuntu 12.10 64bit using a liveUsb and I got this message :

cannot mount /dev/loop1 on /cow which shows up after clicking on "try Ubuntu before installing" or install Ubuntu".

I tried using nomodeset option and I ended up with this error :

initramfs) unable to find a medium containing a live file system

I used Startup Disk Creator

Ok, I solved the problem.

All I had to do is to choose the "Discard changes after shutdown" option when I was using Start up disk creator program to create my LiveUsb.

Is this a bug ?
