Bug Description
2020-11-24 10:58 GMT Downloaded ubuntu-
Used Startup Disk Creator on two previously working 4GB USB sticks
Both Print GRUB then "Error can't find grub_platform"
Show a boxed Ubuntu Studio but no live OS is loaded
Tried on two BIOS based 4core/6core AMD computers - same outcome.
USB stick can be used to mount ISO -> /boot contains some grub files
Problem is identical on :-
ubuntu-20.10-live server-amd.iso
ubuntu-20.04.1-live server-amd.iso
kubuntu-
I suspect that a change in the creation of these ISOs is causing NON-UEFI machines to fail to load Grub2 correctly.
