Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: usb-creator

I am using usb-creator 0.2.12 from the Karmic LiveCD to install to a USB
thumbdrive.

I create a new FAT32 filesystem, check it with dosfsck(8), install the
live system on it, re-run dosfsck(8), and see errors. See below for the
step-by-step specifics:

r...@ubuntu:~# mkdosfs -v -n usb-linux /dev/sdb2 
mkdosfs 3.0.3 (18 May 2009)
Auto-selecting FAT32 for large filesystem
/dev/sdb2 has 124 heads and 62 sectors per track,
logical sector size is 512,
using 0xf8 media descriptor, with 1522224 sectors;
file system has 2 32-bit FATs and 8 sectors per cluster.
FAT size is 1484 sectors, and provides 189903 clusters.
Volume ID is eaf5bac9, volume label usb-linux.

r...@ubuntu:~# fsck.msdos -n -v /dev/sdb2

Media byte 0xf8 (hard disk)
       512 bytes per logical sector
      4096 bytes per cluster

First FAT starts at byte 16384 (sector 32)
         2 FATs, 32 bit entries
    759808 bytes per FAT (= 1484 sectors)
Root directory start at cluster 2 (arbitrary size)
Data area starts at byte 1536000 (sector 3000)
    189903 data clusters (777842688 bytes)
62 sectors/track, 124 heads
         0 hidden sectors
   1522224 sectors total

(Do the usb-creator thing)

There are differences between boot sector and its backup.
