Thank you for the report.
That probably means your USB key's partition table is invalid.
Just in case, please post a copy of its first sectors by running
this command to save it to a file F, then attach F in your reply:
dd if=/dev/sdb count=34 > F
If you have no valuable data on it, you can fix it by running this command:
[CAUTION: this will destroy the invalid partition table and any
related data in the first 34 sectors of your "sdb" disk, and will
make it hard to retrieve any existing info on that disk. ]
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb count=34
Make sure that /dev/sdb is the right one before you run this.
Then, remove the USB key, reinsert it and start your process
from the beginning.
