Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs
There seems to be some confusion about what type of device the USB
Startup Disk Creator needs. The documentation refers to a disk, to some
people this also means a usb external hard drive, and when running the
utility, they wiped all the information from the hard drive, when they
only intended to use a small portion of the drive.
