Bug Description
16.10 host, 16.04 image to burn, Lenovo Thinkpad T430 worked fine.
Then I try on a much more recent Lenovo ThinkStation P710 with UEFI, 2 SSDs and 1 HD.
The following can happen: interrupt boot with F12:
- choose legacy: error message: "[ timestamp] nouveau ... unknown chipset", so looks like kernel was found, but something wrong happened later
- choose UEFI:
- error: "disk hd0,4 not found".
- then I ls on GRUB CLI, and the correct partition should be hd1,4, hd0 looks like the hard disk?
- then I edit the boot settings for the entry to use hd1,4, try boot, but that gives a black screen, and I can't even get a shell with ctrl + alt + F1

@ Ciro Santilli,
I am very sorry for the long delay. Until now I have expected feedback via the Ubuntu Forums or via email. I discovered that there are bug reports about mkusb here today.
If your Lenovo ThinkStation P710 is still affected by that bug, when running the current version of mkusb, I am willing to start a dialogue with you to debug it.
