Still unsolved bug here and bug -report here, bug in 12.04 and apparently in many other versions. How can I create an bootable USB -stick with Ubuntu?

I have no idea what is the problem with the GUI -wrapper but this should work in Ubuntu, it works in Debian.
Check up the sdNUMBER and then as a root overwrite the stick, be sure that you overwrite the right stick!
$ dmesg|grep sd|less
# cat debian.iso > /dev/sdX
# sync
More here.
Example: notice like sdb, not like sdb1
$ sudo su
# root@xyz:/home/xyz# cat /home/xyz/Documents/Distros/debian-6.0.5-i386-netinst.iso >/dev/sdb

4...this worked fine, the iso -file comes with the bootloader -- fed up to Ubuntu's bugs so switched to Debian.– hhhAug 10, 2012 at 5:37
For any Linux , Make Boot able USB drive with Unetbootin. Provide .iso image path and click write. ( Don't need to select even Linux and versions).
This worked in my case:
sudo dd if=ubuntu-14.04.2-desktop-i386.iso of=/dev/sdb

1If you would use an Ubuntu ISO file in your command,your answer would be on topic. As it was, not so much. Just my 2 cents - corrected. Jul 2, 2015 at 2:05

Sorry, it was debian originally. I think I copied the wrong filename. Jul 3, 2015 at 12:15
