Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: usb-creator-gtk
In Beta Karmic I went to make a bootable usb drive with the Karmic iso.
My USB drive was formatted with 3 partitions; 750 MB fat32 with Jaunty
OS, and 2 ext2 partitions.
The fat32 partition did not have enough room and I selected Format from
the program. Instead of formatting the partition that I had selected,
the program reformatted the entire USB drive as one fat32 partition,
destroying all data.
