Bug Description
First of all, thank you Kendek for the good work.
I see you are publishing a lot of updates lately and I was hoping that my issues would solve because since version 1.0.0.31 I have been facing 3 issues in Ubuntu 14.04:
1) The sizes of the drives are wrong. They always show a lot less space than they really have. For example one empty 16G pendrive displays 2,5G, but another empty 8G pendrive displays 3,5G and so on... The available images display 0,01GB when they actually are 2,7GB...
2) There is no way to convert from sblive to ISO
*** 3) When I restore a copy to another PC, the /home partition is not restored correctly, it misses most of the files and configs even though I checked the option to include user data when I created the image.
Hope you can find the way to solve all these things. If I can help you somehow troubleshoot and test this, please just ask me.
Thanks and good luck!

1) I not see any problems with drives sizes on my 64-bit computers with TB size devices. But I using unsigned long instead of unsigned long long. Now I checked this, and now I see, ulong isn't enough on 32-bit operating system.
I fix this problem soon.
2) Maybe the converting isn't possible because previous size problems.
(But otherwise, there is a need to double the size of free space.)
3) I testing this soon...
