Ubuntu 10.04 has some issues with unetbootin, so if you like to boot ubuntu 10.04 using a usb do the following:
- format the usb as FAT32
- mount the usb disk (/dev/sdX) as /media/aaa
X is assigned by the system. Most of the time it’s /dev/sdb1 or /dev/sdc1. If you want to know type: df -h
- After mounting type:
grub-install --recheck --root-directory=/media/aaa /dev/sdX
Don’t use any numbers at the end. So /dev/sdb or /dev/sdc
- Copy everything from the iso except the directory /boot.
- Copy the /boot/grub/grub.cfg from the iso to the /boot/grub directory on the flash
Now you should be able to use your usb key with grub2 and ubuntu 10.04!
