[Bug 1431841] [NEW] Unable to mount /dev/loop0 during install with a memory stick

[FLORA]

Public bug reported:

I use backbox-4.1-amd64.iso (an Ubuntu-based Linux distribution). I
created a live usb. It is impossible to boot from that but after I made
first choise "Install BackBox Linux" and the error notification appears
as follows:

(initramfs) stdin: Not a typewriter
mount: mounting dev/loop0 on //filesystem.squashfs failed: Invalid argument
Can not mount /dev/loop0 (/cdrom/casper/filesystem.squashfs) on //filesystem.squashfs

The ISO image is ok (I cheked the md5 sum and sha256 sum). I tried to
create my live usb with dd, UNetbootin and also usb-creator-gtk. I tried
"install backbox",  "Try BackBox without installing", and "check CD for
defect".
