And, again, with a small persistent size (only 0.45 GB on a 4GB stick),
things seem to go OK (I still have to check the boot). See log below.
Remarkable: in the successful log there is a line with "/usr/share/usb-
creator/install.py", which does not appear in the log of an unsuccessful
usb-creator install.
So, if this is really the case:
1) you can see in the log whether things have gone OK by checking for
/usr/share/usb-creator/install.py
2) the problem with the large persistent space is before or in
/usr/share/usb-creator/install.py
