So, you're saying that usb stick has actually changed in some way after
the install?  That's certainly possible.  Have you tried making a new
one from the live cd?

If two machines won't boot from your live install usb stick then there
must be something wrong with it, no?

The point is to boot the live cd (usb stick) and make a list of all the
drivers the kernel is using when the hardware is working correctly, and
then build your own kernel using the same drivers.
