Tony,

Yes, Startup Disk Creator works with a standard Ubuntu ISO only.

Trying UnetBootIn worth a shot...

Thanks,

Amichai

&gt; Hi all,<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I have an ISO of customized GCompris based on Ubuntu. It is intended<br>
&gt; to be burned on a CD (iso 9660 FS Type). When I try to burn it to a<br>
&gt; USB, the pendrive &quot;becomes&quot; a CD and it won&#39;t boot...<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; The guy who made this ISO as a school project a while back, says he<br>
&gt; can&#39;t remember how he made it in the first place, but it has<br>
&gt; something to do with extracting the squashfs and re-create it using<br>
&gt; chroot.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Can any of you point me to a step by step guide on how to do it -<br>
&gt; from the top?  <br>
<br>
</span>Have you tried using the Startup Disk creator that comes with Ubuntu?<br>
You give it an ISO file and the USB device and it creates a bootable<br>
USB.<br>
<br>
There is also the package &#39;unetbootin&#39; which you can install and does a<br>
similar job.<br>
<br>
Works with standard Ubuntu ISO disks. Not sure about a customised ISO,<br>
but worth a shot.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Tony.<br>
