** Description changed: Binary package hint: usb-creator I ran into a problem using usb-creator-gtk to create a live USB disk. I - created the disk on a machine with 4GB RAM without error, but the - resultant USB disk would not boot. I then tried created the USB disk on - a machine with only 1GB RAM and received the message that the md5sums + first created the disk on a machine with 4GB RAM without error, but the + resultant USB disk would not boot. I then tried creating the USB disk + on a machine with only 1GB RAM and received the message that the md5sums did not match. After some experimenting and running md5sum manually I discovered the USB disk had a few bad blocks which do not report read or write errors when accessed. Dropping the filesystem cache or unmounting and mounting - the target disk before checking the md5sums should detect this kind of - failure. + the target disk again before checking the md5sums should detect this + kind of failure.
