In the past I have had problems when booting from a usb created with
live-usb-creator in the non-destructive mode when booting on uefi mode,
Does livecd-iso-to disk usbs works on uefi mode?
If you use the --efi option, then livecd-iso-to-disk sets it up so it
works with both UEFI and BIOS modes. This is what I use when I'm not
using PXE for installing. You do need to make sure you use the --format
option one time first. After that, you can put different versions on
the drive without formatting again.
