Question #47595 on Ubuntu Eee changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu-eee/+question/47595

Blokeley requested for more information:
I gave up on USB and used a CD instead. Note that:

1. Check the MD5 checksum of your ISO image to make sure it downloaded
from the ubuntu-eee site OK. Mine didn't first time round.

2. For some completely unknown reason I had to try the CD install 3
times before it worked:

* Attempt 1: Complete hang with the ubuntu-eee background but the installer dialog had not appeared.
* Attempt 2: Loads of squashfs errors.Xandros was rendered un-bootable at this point.
* Attempt 3: Success!

I have no idea what was different the third time round.

In conclusion: use the CD, and hope for the best!
