Description Pavel Mlčoch 2014-05-26 16:03:24 UTC
Description of problem:

I tried create liveusb, but works only on GPT partition table booted by UEFI. When I tried boot by bios, Ive got only blinking cursor.
When I used msdos partition table, I can boot only by BIOS, but after boot Ive got blinking cursor too.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
On F20 distributed version liveusb-creator-3.12.0-1.fc20.noarch

My computer is based on motherboard ASUS E45M1-I DELUXE
I used ISO image of LiveDVD of fedora 20 x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create GPT partition table or msdos by gparted and one fat32 partition for all of usb drive
2. Create liveusb by command liveusb and in gui select my stick (Transcend Rubber 3.0)
3. Boot (with or without success)

Actual results:
Blinkink cursor on msdos partition table and with GPT table for boot by bios

Expected results:
I expect boot for bios combination too

I just released a new version of the liveusb-creator which supports dd-based installation, which should resolve this issue.
