USB stick made with UNetbootin missing BOOTMGR.

Ubuntu not booting from USB on laptop (no optical drive)

I downloaded 12.04 32-bit ISO and am trying to make a USB stick with it for me to boot from and install on my HD. I followed the instructions in UNetbootin but my USB stick is missing its bootmgr so it won't boot.

Any advice? I don't have a CD-burner nor a CD-ROM on my laptop which I am trying to install on.

If you're using some linux distro to make the live USB, you can use the commands given in the following link:

If you're using Windows, you can try any other Live USB creating software such as YUMI (Your Universal Multiboot Installer) or LinuxLive USB Creator.

I found out that it possibly might have been an issue with the USB stick being formatted in NTFS :) Formatted in FAT32 and it worked perfectly! – Nicolai Sorensen Aug 19 '12 at 19:11
