[03:26] so i'm trying to install ubuntu on a spare PC, the mobo only supports booting from USB CD-ROM drives, but not flash drives and I don't have any blank DVDs laying around. i know unetbootin will make a flash drive bootable to install the ISO, but it won't appear as a USB CD-ROM. Anyone know of a method to get this to work? [03:50] Not off the top of my head, no. Sorry. I haven't seen a motherboard that wouldn't boot of a USB stick in quite a while.
