[LAU] someone awhile back posted about how to make a bootable Linux flash drive?

[Robert Jonsson]

I dont't think this is a unetbootin error...

This is the only way I install lately, broken cd drives and missing cd
drives.
If the stick has verified ok I'd think it's a problem with the actual
installation. Your internet connection perhaps? Or a bug in the installer..

But there are lots of variables, I could definitely be wrong.

Btw, 8.10 is not a recommended release, or so I have heard...?
