looks like it is working for me.

Thanks.

/ cp: cannot stat `/vmlinuz': No such file or directory

Accepted casper into maverick-proposed, the package will build now and
be available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed. Thank you in advance!

Bug description:
  Stable update justification:

  Impact: USB stick upgrades fail with obscure errors when upgrading the
  kernel.  This results in very large numbers of duplicate bug reports.

  Development branch: Fixed in casper 1.253/1.254 by making the
  writable-USB-stick update-initramfs shim more robust against the bits
  it's copying not existing for various reasons, and making it be a
  separate executable which can be upgraded in ways that don't involve
  regenerating the USB stick.

  Patch:
  
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/lucid/casper/lucid/revision/818?compare_revid=814

  
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/maverick/casper/maverick/revision/843?compare_revid=841


  TEST CASE: Create an Ubuntu USB stick, making sure that you do *not*
  drag the "Stored in reserved extra space" slider all the way to the
  right in usb-creator (see bug 562312), and run 'sudo update-initramfs
  -u'.  10.04.1 and 10.10 as released should fail.  A lucid daily build
  dating from after this SRU is accepted should succeed (we're unlikely
  to do more daily builds of maverick).  Also, if you start from 10.04.1
  or 10.10 as released, upgrade the casper package to the current
  version in lucid-proposed or maverick-proposed after this SRU is
  accepted, and then run 'sudo update-initramfs -u', that should
  succeed.

  Regression potential: I don't think update-initramfs will fail in any
  more situations due to this change.  Possible sources of regression
  are problems upgrading the casper package, and testers should also
  make sure that the upgraded image actually still boots following this
  change.

  Please note the similar bug 591207, which we're fixing along with this
  bug, and the related bug 591202 in grub2, which you may run into along
  the way.

  Original bug report:

  == description ==
  update-initramfs failed on liveUSB because /vmlinux symlink doesn't exists

  some users reported to have build the installation media with
  Universal-USB-Installer

  == workaround ==
  create /vmlinuz symbolic link to point to /cdrom/casper/vmlinuz

  $ ln -s /cdrom/casper/vmlinuz /vmlinuz
