Public bug reported: Binary package hint: usb-creator
I wanted to create a USB Startup Disk. So I clicked "USB Startup Disk Creator" on the System -> Administration menu. I chose the ISO. My USB disk was plugged. The second list showed my disk, with a warning icon, and beneath the list it said "The device needs to be formatted for use.". However, when I clicked "Format", nothing happened. I thought the problem was I didn't have gparted installed (and was about to submit this bug as a "papercut", asking if you could make it clearer that gparted had to be installed in order to format the disk). Then I installed gparted, and tried that button again, but nothing happened, so I think the bug is more important than I thought. Let me know if you need any other detail. Thank you.
