Bug Description
When I use the new option create a usb startup disk on the System menu it will not work with either a 8.04.1.iso or 8.04.1 disk. It looks like it runs well, but then when I try to boot into the Ubuntu on the USB drive I just get a BusyBox shell. This is very important to me as I need to install 8.04 on my wifes computer or it is a very expensive paperweight.

What are the computer specs? Output of lspci might be useful as well.
