Bug Description
Description: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
Release: 16.04
usb-creator-gtk:
Installed: 0.3.2
Candidate: 0.3.2
Version table:
*** 0.3.2 500
500 http://
100 /var/lib/
Steps to reproduce:
1) Insert USB
2) Launch Startup Disk Creator
3) Create bootable USB with 16.04 LTS 64-bit image
What happens:
- USB is now bootable (sometimes) with Ubuntu, but:
- USB has no write capability
- USB cannot be formatted
What should happen:
-USB should be able to be used for storage as well as boot
-USB should be formattable and re-writable

I think that was the previous behavior in older releases.
Seems like a regression, why is it this way now instead of how it was before?
I only have one pendrive at all times with me and I always had Ubuntu in it and my files, now do I have to carry two pendrives?
Thanks.
