As i understood, cubic tries to set syslinux to skip the "install or try" menu, that's exactly what's not working

Mike Burgener,

If you create a custom ISO using Cubic, and boot into the custom ISO, you will be presented with a dialog offering two options:
  1. Try Ubuntu
  2. Install Ubuntu

Are you saying you want to bypass these two options, and have the custom Live ISO boot directly into the Live Environment (as if you had clicked the Try Ubuntu)?

Or, are you saying that you are not presented with these two options?

Hi,
I would like to bypass those options and from reading in forum posts etc. by googling i came to the conclusion, that cubic seems to already care about this.

kind regards

OK.

I'm going to convert this to a Question, because it is really not a bug in Cubic.

Then I'll give you a few suggestions on how to achieve what you are trying to do.
