Apparently my installation of syslinux was incorrect and liveusb-creator installs it somewhat correctly. Now I am getting the error "chain.c32: not a COM32R image". How do I make a USB flash drive bootstrap like a CD? My BIOS is configured okay (Ubuntu boots from USB).
The problem is, I have an ISO image and if a burn it to CD it boots fine. When I "burn" it to the flash drive, it doesn't boot.
I am guessing the CD burner creates a sort of a boot sector automatically, which isn't done for the USB drive. Please do not refer me to Linux/Ubuntu bootable installers from USB, I am not asking to boot Linux. It's an arbitrary bootable ISO image.
The ISO contains an isolinux directory, inside is some stuff like boot.cat file, isolinux.bin, .img file, .krn file etc. Ring any bells? I am not familiar with this isolinux bootloading thing.
Can someone please explain how I can use these files? Do I need to reinstall syslinux on the USB?

I've had succes with both Windows and Linux iso's using UNetBootin. There are also several tutorials out there on how to use it with a Windows ISO.
