When creating USB stick from Ubuntu CD ISO image (or any other bootable CD ISO image for that matter) upon finishing copying files onto the USB stick I am getting an error message "System policy prevents installing the bootloader"followed by password prompt. When I enter the password, I get an error message "Failed to install bootloader". The result is the USB stick with all necessary files on it, but it is not bootable. I do have all administrative rights for the account I am using.
