@Ken T (professorsnapper),

Which version of *ubuntu are you running, when you create your USB boot
drives? Is it a version before 16.04 LTS? In that case I think there is
an old and buggy version of the Startup  Disk Creator, that you should
avoid :-)

A new robust *cloning* version of the Startup  Disk Creator was bundled
with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

-o-

I'm glad that you have a version of Disks, that can do the job :-)

Title:
  Workaround needed to boot from USB stick - "gfxboot.c32: not a COM32R
  image"

Status in syslinux package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  So, last night I downloaded the latest daily build of Lubuntu 18.04 from here:
  http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/daily-live/current/
  Checked 256SHAsum, all OK. Created USB boot stick.

  Got the same error message as listed in the below post:
  https://askubuntu.com/questions/486602/ubuntu-14-04-lts-live-usb-boot-error-gfxboot-c32not-a-valid-com32r-image
   - The fix mentioned in that post worked for me (upon getting that message, press TAB, type "live" & press enter.) 

  Installing on a 2005-era Dell Latitude D610 laptop, 1.2GB RAM.
   
  Thanks,
  Ken.
