I've come across this error a lot of times lately, the first time it drove me to assuming my usb disk was corrupt or some such. This time I thought it was because lots of other things were broken in the system (bad upgrade problems from jaunty, using pre-release updates... things are starting to go wonky - That's why I was going to make the usb disk lol).
I went to one of my other Ubuntu machines to do the deed, and came across this problem there too. I just formatted the partition using gparted. It lists both /dev/sdg with a warning icon, and also /dev/sdg1, which is currently allowing me to create the partition. It is quite confusing though, especially when the default item selected is the warning icon @ /dev/sdg -- USB Startup Disk Creator does nothing when trying to format a disk https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/457737 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
