Bug Description
When running a multi-boot usb drive and mounting ISO files to do installs, the ubuntu alternate(-i386) install cd fails. It will load and get part of the way (past the language/keyboard selection screens) then fails saying "Incorrect CD-ROM detcted". However, running the desktop(-i386) ISO from the same USB device works fine.
The multi-boot usb was setup similarly to: http://
The grub.cfg file being used for both the good (desktop) and bad (alternate) boot images is attached to this.
