[Bug 295212] Re: Hangs on "Starting Up"

Same bug here (Ubuntu 8.10 i386). But when usb-creator crashed, it left a partition mounted. I had to unmount first before using gparted. -- Hangs on "Starting Up" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295212 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribe

Similar bug for me, I ran sudo syslinux /dev/sde1 and it complained about only working on 512 byte sectors. If syslinux doesn't like it, I suppose it won't work, but usb-creator shouldn't hang forever like this. -- Hangs on "Starting Up" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295212 You received this bu

This is what i did. My usb disk was in vfat (1Gb). I formated it in ext3 (you will lose all data in the usb drive): - umount /media/disk - sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/sdb (Caution: Careful while entering device/partition name; wrong name can wipe out entire hard disk!!!) and now when i start usb-creat

[Bug 295212] Re: Hangs on "Starting Up"

I had a single 1GB FAT16 partition (created by Windows XP) on my drive (1GB total), and used gparted to remove the old partition and create a new FAT16 partition. This also resolved my issue. Thanks pg4i for posting your solution. -- Hangs on "Starting Up" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295212

[Bug 295212] Re: Hangs on "Starting Up"

Done some debugging. My 8 Gb USB stick had one large vfat partition. Somehow, usb-creator could not detect this partition, it would get stuck at the message: "Persistence size: 128 MB". So I installed gparted and deleted this partition and created 2 new fat16 partition of 4 GB each. Next, usb-crea
