Title:
  the boot USB does not boot, however all the download files (ISO etc )
  are visible on the memory stick

Status in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 10.10 server edition, 32 bit for Intel platforms.

  downloaded on windows Vista platform with 3GB memory and 120GB free
  disk space.

  Target platform for Ubuntu is a Intel platform running MS-Windows 2000
  with 500MB RAM and 60GB disk space.

  I dowdloaded and created a DVD disk for booting and that just did not
  auto-boot;

  also, tried ca USB memory stick install, and the system wont boot from
  the memory stick, although all the files were readable on memory
  stick.

  One surprising point ... I did not see and exe file on the Ubuntu
  download at all ie no *.exe files.

  how can i get this boot to work?
