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 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.
