Bug Description
the device selection at the bottom of the screen (type - drive) lists all FAT/NTFS devices (including your Windows/bootcamp partition on your internal hd!).
This means users are quite likely to accidentally write the linux installer to their internal HD: the internal HD it is pre-selected by default and the user thinks: I only have one USB stick plugged in, so the one pre-selected must be the correct one. No need to check what disk0,s2 refers to exactly - because the drop-down says clearly "USB-Stick"

also, I notice that the Type dropdown only lists "USB Drive" as only option on OSX - whereas under Ubuntu, it also contains "Hard Drives"
