Not a COM32R image

boot

is a message that the console infinitely keeps spitting out when I try to install Ubuntu 10.04 from a USB. I created the USB using the StartupDiskCreator in 11.04.

What is the reason for this behavior? What do I do to set it right?

I have followed the steps perfectly, as enlisted in the Ubuntu Install from USB page.

A quick/dirty way to solve this issue is to press TAB, the computer will provide a text menu with your options, i.e. live live-install test etc.

Now just type the option you want, i.e. live Enter. This will boot it as a Live CD [sic], and then continue installation from there.
