Universal Usb Installer Syslinux.exe Has Stopped Working
the top Cannot successfully create a bootable Ubuntu USB drive up vote 3 down vote favorite 2 I am trying to create a bootable Ubuntu USB drive. I tried the Universal USB Installer and UNETbootin to create it but when I booted the USB stick, error loading operating system shows up. I tried changing the BIOS to boot from USB by default but always got the same error message. When syslinux 6.03 edd 20150813 copyright (c) 1994-2014 h. peter anvin et al boot error I was in the Universal USB Installer it gave me this error message: can not open output file autorun.inf Also an error prompt opens: An error occurred while executing syslinux. Your usb drive won't be bootable. when it was extracting from 7zip. The drive is formatted as exFAT. I'm not sure if that is important. Edit: re-downloading the iso didn't work or formatting the drive. Edit 2: Since I couldn't format it as normal FAT I formatted it as NTFS and that worked. live-usb system-installation share|improve this question edited Jan 26 '14 at 1:55 minerz029 12.9k84480 asked Jan 25 '14 at 22:37 user239867 1613 have you tried remaking the live usb? –Mina Michael Jan 25 '14 at 23:18 2 Try re-downloading the Ubuntu ISO from the official website ubuntu.com , the ISO on your computer might be corrupted. –Emerson Hsieh Jan 25 '14 at 23:41 I too have found this on numerous occasions. Often a reformat of the USB stick to simple FAT and then a redownload of the ISO or just restarting UNetbootin does the trick. –Mordoc Jan 26 '14 at 0:24 3 If you found the answer yourself, you are encouraged to add your own answer below instead of
pendrivelinx.com on a Windows 7 64-bit machine with a 16 GB flash drive (mapped to G:), but I kept getting an error that the drive wouldn't be bootable. The message in the command line window read: Execute: C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Temp\[random].tmp\syslinuxnew.exe -maf G: Syslinux Errors 1

A message box would then appear with the following warning: Universal USB Installer 1.8.6.3 Setup An not a removable drive use f to override error(1) occurred while executing syslinux. Your USB drive won't be bootable… [OK] When I opened a command prompt and ran syslinuxnew.exe -maf G:, syslinux boot prompt the result was zero FAT sectors. When I ran syslinux.exe -maf G:, I got a much more informative message, or at least one that I could better understand: this doesn't look like a valid FAT filesystem. And of http://askubuntu.com/questions/410750/cannot-successfully-create-a-bootable-ubuntu-usb-drive course, the flash drive wasn't FAT32, it was NTFS. I had forgotten to format the drive as FAT32 before running the utility, but I also managed to not check the box next to "We will format G:\Drive as FAT32." in the utility itself. No wonder Google wasn't returning any results when I searched this - who's going to have missed properly formatting the drive not once but twice? In the event that a quick format as https://ardamis.com/2011/09/18/universal-usb-installer-syslinux-errors/ FAT32 doesn't work for you, you can try running a few diskpart commands in Windows to really thoroughly format a flash drive, including the MBR and partition table.

This was my problem, except I did format the USB, but I only did a quick format, which apparently is not enough to change it from NTFS to FAT32. Kat 28 September 2011 at 5:44 pm Hey, thanks for this! I also mis-formated my USB stick. I wish the Ubuntu website mentioned it though. Matt 19 October 2011 at 2:49 pm I had this issue, and it wasn't a formatting problem (although thank you for the tip), but rather that the amount of space I specified to "Store Changes" needed to be at least 2048MB (2GB). It was an 8GB flash drive, so this was no problem. The reason it needs 2GB of space is that is the minimum amount of space required to house an Ubuntu system volume. If I had opted out of retaining changes, I probably wouldn't have even encountered this trouble, but I want

I have Windows 8.1 and want to burn ubuntu-14.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso into USB. Every time I format USB to FAT or FAT32, I get an error with all 3 of these software: Unetbootin: The disk cannot be written because it is write protected. Universal USB installer: An error(1) occured when executing syslinux. Your USB occurred while executing drive won't be bootable. Rufus2.5: error: write error I tried with 2 different USB - 2Gb and 8Gb, neither of them have any physical locks. ISO size is 1Gb. If I format USB to NTFS file system then it works, but after it finishes, the USB is shown as completely empty. Also computer does not recognize it either while booting. To remove write protection (if it was on), I did this, but nothing changed. What am I missing, and what file system am I supposed to use when burning Ubuntu into USB? Can someone help me with this? usb share|improve this question edited Nov 16 '15 at 11:04 asked Nov 13 '15 at 15:33 user1880405 1335 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 0 down vote In windows I would ensure there are just one partition on the USB drive. See article How to delete a partition on a USB drive? Once you have cleared all partitions on USB drive, try writing your ISO to the USB again.
