Thx Cameron for your help.

Creating an OSGeo-Live Bootable USB flash
drive<http://live.osgeo.org/en/quickstart/usb_quickstart.html>


Unable to create a bootable USB flash drive from Windows, recommend:
1) download a mini ISO in Windows
2) create a bootable DVD image
3) make DVD and USB boot first
4) boot off that DVD ubuntu image
5) create a bootable USB from Ubuntu

Cheers,

Install on bootable DVD works fine, so I don't think my system (Win7 Home
Basic on 9 mo.-old HP Pavilion g6).
