Size is stuck to the first source in the list

[Saverio Miroddi]

Binary package hint: usb-creator

If I have two sources, the size took into account by the creator is always the first one's.
A practical example:

- I use a destination with 2 GB of space
- I have a DVD inserted, unrelated to the process, whose size is 7 GB
- I open the USB boot creator
- I select an Ubuntu iso (size ~700 MB)

In this condition I can't write to the destination, because even if I select the second source (ubuntu iso), the usb creator says I don't have enough space in the destination.

If I follow the same steps, without a DVD inserted, I can write to the USB.
