Hi all,

It works with: xubuntu-8.10-desktop-i386.iso (Date 20. November. 2008)
I have used: "create a usb startup disk" (usb-creator 0.1.10)

I got someting like "i/o error... replace disk!" I think it is because I have executed "create a usb startup disk" as normal user. Following commands have solved it:
#new MBR :
sudo lilo -M /dev/sdb
#install bootloader:
sudo syslinux -f /dev/sdb1

Works well on my IBM X41! My first semi-live (stores automatic etc and home!) system on an usb stick. Very useful for me!
Bye, Jonas.
