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.
