Hello all,
I was unable to boot Ubuntu 10.10 alpha 3 (both x32 and x64) using Universal Netboot Installer. I was using USB flash drive and the error was "Can't find init".
I am pretty sure this error happens in 100% when using alpha 3 of Ubuntu 10.10, if it does not happen, I can enable debug logs (if possible) or make a picture of my screen.
I tried twice to reformat my USB drive in order to eliminate possible drive failures, but in both cases the error was the same.
Here is the iso which I was trying to boot: http://
At the same time, I was able to boot Ubuntu 10.04 x32 - everything went properly. So my USB drive is working OK ...
Thanks for this amazyingly useful tool!
