[Bug 1034487] Re: ISO disk image not read by disc Creator

[M.F. Abdollahnia]

I have the same problem. 1. A new image is not loaded to startup disk
creator when selected.  2. If the image file is corrupt, it is ignored
with no warning 3. Startup disk creator quits unexpectedly when done
creating the disk, sparking a system error message (it was launched from
command line when this happened)

Title:
  ISO disk image not read by disc Creator

Status in “usb-creator” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Trying to create a bootable USB stick (actually this is being done to
  recover an interupted (power line failure) upgrade to 12.04) I am able
  to boot my system with an alternate hard drive, and the drive is seen
  and the files seem present, however I need to install/reinstall a new
  version of 12.04. Thus the need for a bootable USB (cd drive does not
  work) - USB creator will find the USB stick fine, however the
  downloaded ISO is apparently never loaded.  This might be similar to

  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-creator/+bug/500526

  but I am not savvy enough to know. I have tried running disk creator
  from the command line but get the following

  floyd at DPR1500:~$ usb-creator-gtk -i ubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso
  isoinfo: Short read on old image

  Suggestion is that the iso is bad so I will download another, but any
  guidance would be appriciated  -- I am still basically just trying to
  recover the system from a poorly timed power failure.
