OK, I've just tried putting Gutsy beta on my USB drive following a mixture of my own [1] and pendrivelinux.com's instructions [2]. However, I had the same problem as before: I can't choose the way to boot (and I can't memorize the boot lines).

I suppose something has been changed in that e.g. syslinux.cfg should now still be named isolinux.cfg or something, but since I haven't really kept tabs on this I wouldn't know of it.

Mike, do you happen to know if anything, and if so, what has changed in the process of putting Ubuntu on your USB drive?
