Bug Description

Binary package hint: usb-creator

I have discovered this problem on the prerelease version of Lucid, using the "usb-creator-gtk" package which reports version 0.2.22. Previously, when I made a bootable USB drive from a CD image (e.g. from usb-creator on Karmic) the resulting drive would boot with menu options like "Try Ubuntu without any change to your computer" and "Install Ubuntu" whereas on Lucid, usb-creator produces drives that have choices like "live" and "live-install." I'm sure this is not the intention and should be edited back to the previous descriptions.

I haven't provided screen shots since I am not running Lucid on a VM, but I can do my best to get some if necessary.

Well, I had some free time to test this one again. I tried creating a new bootable USB drive and it worked fine this time. Last time might have been some kind of fluke or other write-error of some kind - and not truly a "bug." Perhaps this was a misfiled bug...Sorry
