[Bug 1193725] [NEW] Install from USB fails: "An attempt to configure apt to install additional packages from the CD failed." See same Bug #658865

[benske]

Public bug reported:

System: Ubuntu 13.04 on Sandy Bridge x64 Dell laptop.

The program "startup disk creator" failed to create a working USB stick device. Boot error: "Operating System Not Found". After 
sudo dd if=/dev/sdX1 of=~/usb-stick.img bs=10M
sudo dd of=/dev/sdX if=~/usb-stick.img bs=10M
sudo rm ~/usb-stick.img
(solution found here: http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Live-USB#Problemloesungen)
the system was able to boot. Next error was : "An attempt to configure apt to install additional packages from the CD failed." See same Bug #658865
After "sudo rm /usr/lib/ubiquity/apt-setup/generators/40cdrom" installation worked so far.

Please fix the program Startup Disk Creator. Its not working for a really long time now. Even Unetbootin does not work properly.
Thanks for Ubuntu from a paying customer
