Public bug reported: Binary package hint: usb-creator
Booting from: Jaunty daily-live (Apr 20) Package version: usb-creator (0.1.16) ISOs used: Jaunty daily-live (Apr 19, 20) I am trying to create a live-persistent-USB on a 4GB USB drive (FAT 32) using usb-creator. In the gui, I move the slider for persistence file space all the way to the left so it reads 3.1GB allocated for saving system settings, etc. When the program is run, using the above mentioned ISO's, usb-creator will exit with a status of 0 right after it has finished writing the ISO files to the usb. Therefore, the persistence filesystem is never written to the USB drive, but the resulting USB drive is still functional. It is verified that USB is a working, non-persistent live USB. The peculiarity is that if I set the persistence slider to approximately 1.2 GB or below, the entire process works perfectly. The resulting USB is a working, persistent, live USB with approximately 1.2 GB allocated for persistency (or however much drive space I have specified in the gui). I believe it is a bug that I am unable to allocate more USB drive space for persistency.
