I encountered something like this as well. I used a fresh from the box 4gb drive, went to Create a USB startup disk, tried to install xubuntu 8.1 on it. However, I received a message like Adam Niedling -"non-system disc," etc and not the grub 17 error.

What worked was reformatting to fat32, partitioning the drive and then doing Create a USB startup disc.
