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.
