jruss, Thanks for the clarification in your comment in bug #302485. I took a look at your patch your provided here but I ran into a few issues I have questions about.
The patch you wrote was intended for usb-creator 0.1.11 however I am still experiencing the same issues with version 0.1.16. I took a look at the lines you were trying to modify in install.py and found that the original line in 0.1.11: popen(['dd', 'if=/dev/zero', 'bs=1', 'of=%s/casper-rw' % target, 'count=%s' % persist]) was different in 0.1.16. I'm very unclear as to what popen does. I took a look at "subprocess" but I'm not that well versed in python/ubuntu to understand what the class Popen actually does. In any case, The following line of code is what appears in the 0.1.16 version of usb-creator. What should we replace this line to? popen(['dd', 'if=/dev/zero', 'bs=%s' % persist, 'of=%s/casper-rw' % target, 'count=1']) -- Persistence Slider Wrong; Takes more than 3 hours to produce largest persistence file https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/321544 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
