The attempted upgrade on my system then caused the USB memory stick to not be recognized as a boot device. To be clear, this memory stick had successfully been used to boot a Lenovo T500 laptop. An upgrade was attempted, initiated from the upgrade manager, which failed in the now well reported bug. Following this the USB Stick was not recognised as bootable media when the same laptop was rebooted.
Rational for building the USB Memory Stick from a Live CD was because core system is an AMD-64 bit version of Ubuntu. I specifically wanted the memory stick to boot an I386 based laptop and desktop.
Advantages of having a USB memory stick boot are so many to list.
