Public bug reported:

I have a .iso image of the Windows 7 (64bit ita) bootanle installation DVD.
I have succesfully booted from the .iso image on a virtual machine, so the .iso 
image is fine.

I have used Startup Disk Creator (i.e. usb-creator) to create a bootable USB 
drive from that .iso image, but the result is a USB drive which:
- is not bootable. It fails to boot on both computers where I tried (both with 
the bios correctly set up to boot from USB if available)
- is not even readable on windows: I plugged it into a Windows (physical) 
machine, and when I try to open it, it says the filesystem is not valid.

The usb drive is readable on Ubuntu.
