Ubuntu bootable usb

Seanachai · 2013-02-26 20:24:59

Hey , I created a bootable ubuntu usb and I get through the start of the installation and then it asks me for the CD. I was under the impression that the usb was all that was needed. I'd appreciate any suggestions.

I sorted it , downloaded the torrent of 12.10 iso from the Ubuntu website and then used a usb installer program from the Pendrivelinux website. Cheers.
