And about usb-creator-gtk in Saucy: it is buggy, but this way I succeed to make *persistent live* drives with usb-creator-gtk in Lubuntu Saucy. Let it wipe whatever is on the USB pendrive and then create a partition and file system: Click on 'Erase disk'! Alternatives are to install Kubuntu's version usb-creator-kde or Unetbootin (as well as resorting to the version 12.04 LTS).
