Bug Description

After trying to create a fat32 partition on an USB-Stick, gparted crashes.
Fortunately, I started it out of a terminal. For the output see "first_crash.txt".

If I want to start gparted again, it crashes on startup (for log see "crash_now.txt"). So I can reproduce this crash.

My System:
 Ubuntu 8.10
        Kernel 2.6.27-11-generic
        GNOME 2.24.1

Packages (from the original archieves):
       gparted 0.3.8-1ubuntu3

If I should add further information, please say this (sorry for my english, I'm a german student)!

after removing the stick from my usb-hub, everything works fine.

It must have to do with the warning (I'll post it in german):

Das Gerät /dev/sdb hat eine logische Sektorgröße von 2048. Nicht alle Teile von GNU Parted unterstützen dies im Moment und der funktionierende Code ist HOCH EXPERIMENTELL.
