Same thing on 14.04.2. Upon entering admin user password the script
fails with the error message, 'Failed to install boot loader' and quits.
In fact, it's getting even worse as on top of it the script now fails to
erase the USB stick as well with the error message:
org.freedesktop.DBus.Python.gi._glib.GError: Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/dbus/service.py", line 707, in
_message_cb
retval = candidate_method(self, *args, **keywords)
File "/usr/share/usb-creator/usb-creator-helper", line 239, in Format
block.call_format_sync('vfat', GLib.Variant('a{sv}', {'label':
GLib.Variant('s', '')}), None)
gi._glib.GError: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.UDisks2.Error.Failed: Error
synchronizing after initial wipe: Timed out waiting for object
and from that point on the erasing takes forever. Not only that but when
I finally close the USB Stick creator window, I am left with the USB
stick labelled with the chosen distribution name, and appropriate files
appear to be copied over. This is very confusing, given the instructions
on official Ubuntu site claim the process of making the bootable stick
is straightforward and is easy.
