I was trying to install Ubuntu14.04.1 using Unetbootin. I downloaded the .iso file and followed the steps as outlined in the official tutorial.

However after I select the Unetbootin option from the boot options, nothing happens. It gets stuck at this screen , which says

Try (hd0,0): FAT16: No UBNLDR

Try (hd0,1): NTFS5: _

After searching the web for this issue, I couldn't find anything conclusive. Am I missing something here?

Also, the .iso image that I downloaded has the name "ubuntu-14.04.1-desktop-amd64 ". Can this be the cause of this? My system is a Win7 system with Intel Centrino, 3GB RAM.

I found a thread where somebody posted about the issue in Vista, and it mentioned setting the boot device correctly.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/unetbootin/+bug/283743

I tried to run the bcdedit command, but I'm not sure how to get the GUID of Unetbootin.

I saw another thread with the same issue that is currently unanswered :

https://askubuntu.com/questions/517574/unetbootin-ubnldr-mbr-error-during-boot-up

Can somebody help me here.

Try re-formatting the USB drive as FAT32. I had the same problem and after using FAT32 I can boot properly.
