Comment 290 for bug 930447

This is absolutly amasing news guyes, had lost any hope that this status on this bug would ever change. Thankyou to the most persistent advocats arguing this bug should be solved, and not least to Chris and others involved in figuring out howto...

After reciving these great news, the first thing I did was to download the Kubuntu Trusty daily image (2014.03.06) from cdimages.ubunut.com. Used a 12.04.4 box an flashed the Trusty ISO to an USB stick, using the "Start Disk Creator" a so often before. Booting my good old ThinkPad R51 from the USB stick, just to eksperience the "your CPU i not supported ... no PAE". Restarded the R51 and added the kernel "forcepae" parameter to the syslinux parameter line.
Things looked excactly the same as so often before, installing any sort of 12.04 ubuntu flavors. Back to the other ubuntu box, re-fdisk and format the USB, "Start Disk Creator" and then ever so often used grub2 installation to USB when creating 12.04.x USBs for older hardware:

 sudo grub-install --recheck --boot-directory /media/usb-stick/boot /dev/sdX
 nano /media/usb-stick/boot/grub.cfg

menuentry 'Start Kubuntu' --class ubuntu --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os {
 recordfail
 insmod gzio
 insmod part_msdos
 insmod ext2
 set root='(hd0,msdos1)'
 echo 'Indlaeser Linux 3.13.0-16-generic-pae ...'
 linux /casper/vmlinuz file=/cdrom/preseed/kubuntu.seed boot=casper maybe-ubiquity quiet splash --
 echo 'Indlaeser startramdisk ...'
 initrd /casper/initrd.lz
}

Returned the stick to the good old R51, at it just booted from the USB like a charm - just amasing. So right now upgrades from Precise to Trusty should work correct ?, but the old syslinux "original" of this bug still persist right ?.

So new users, and users unaware of this bug, will still experienc problems booting CDs or USB sticks created from ISOs, which with all the good work and all the posting above seems almost unbearable to me...
