scottrigbyHi, we're trying to install Live Lubuntu on a dell latitude d82023:41
scottrigbyFollowed #3 on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/GetLubuntu23:43
scottrigbyusing UNetbootin from a mac to make the USB. Which seemed to work ok23:44
scottrigbyOn the PC, changed the boot order to find USB first in BIOS mode23:44
scottrigbybut when trying to boot, we get the error "missing operating system"23:44
scottrigbyany ideas on what to try next?23:45
* scottrigby waves to jedijf btw23:45
scottrigbythanks for the channel suggestion23:45
rmg51the only thing I can think of right now would be to check to make sure the usb thingy worked23:48
rmg51try booting to a regular OS and read the contents of the usb drive23:49
scottrigbyrmg51: How do i check that? Ok yeah I looked and it seemed to be legit stuff in there23:49
rmg51sounds like something didn't copy right23:50
scottrigbythe USB has been renamed 'Install Lubuntu'23:50
scottrigbyhmm maybe. I used the UNetbootin option. Maybe I should download the ISO and try it that way?23:50
rmg51I have never used the UNetbootin23:52
rmg51it might be easier to just install from a cd23:52
scottrigbyrmg51: any other suggestions? We'll do whatever is best23:52
scottrigbyoh. Yeah… we don't have a CD here :p23:52
rmg51opps23:53
scottrigbyi'm on a macbook air, and his PC just has a CD reader, so we can't burn one23:53
scottrigbyit's cool i'll try to do the ISO and see if that helps :)23:54
scottrigbyif that doesn't… any other suggestions for how to make a bootable USB?23:54
rmg51find someone who already runs some form of Ubuntu and have them make a bootable usb for you :-D23:55
