This question already has an answer here:
How can I make a bootable, unattended USB restore disk?
2 answers
I am currently trying to do a completely unattended Ubuntu install with preseed, following AskUbuntu automated install instructions.
Everything works fine on VirtualBox (I am simulating a DVD) but when I try to burn my ISO on a USB stick and boot it on a computer (UP Squared with Intel CPU), it doesn't boot !
I'd like to add : I have no problem with my bootable key when using a standard ubuntu installation. On the discussion I linked above, best answers says to "burn it on a DVD". Is there a difference between a burn DVD and a bootable USB key ?
Thanks in advance.

Did you treat your iso file withisohybridto make it a hybrid iso file? In that case it should work to clone it to a working USB boot drive. See this link.

Can I ask how you burned your ISO? If you used Unetbootin by any chance, it might be possible that the liveUSB has no boot flag.This bug has been around for a while. And if the liveUSB isn't recognised as bootable... it doesn't boot.
You can solve this with GParted. Select the USB drive, and do a right click. A menu will open which holds "Manage flags". If you click that another menu opens, where you can select "boot". After you've done this, close GParted and (re)boot from the liveUSB.
