USB Installer

Shell script to create bootable Ubuntu USB that:

Works on BIOS and EFI
Works on PCs that have serial console and no video
Trivial to edit after creation

Usage

Insert USB stick into running Linux host with this software
Run 'sudo [UBUNTU_RELEASE=...] [UBUNTU_FLAVOR=...] usbinstaller $usbBlockDevice' at Linux command prompt
Insert USB into PC, power on see Linux boot
Edit kernel command line with console=ttyS0,115200n8 if using ubuntu server instead of ubuntu live server

Notes

In theory ubuntu desktop and server installs can be unattended

To Do

Open ticket "Subiquity should search kernel command line for answerfile location."
