[Bug 906246] Re: Option to 'discard on shutdown' is greyed out.

[Alan Bell]

looks like this is because the remaining free space is less than MIN_PERSISTENCE, 1024MB
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~usb-creator-hackers/usb-creator/trunk/view/head:/usbcreator/misc.py#L21

this seems rather a large minimum, and rather a poor user experience, in
particular it doesn't let the user choose not to do a persistence file
and doesn't move the radio button to indicate one won't be created.

Title:
  Option to 'discard on shutdown' is greyed out.

Status in “usb-creator” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hullo!

  I have been making lots of USB sticks recently and noticed a
  reproducable error on Oneiric and Precise. For some reason the
  selection at the bottom of the screen for reserved disk space is
  greyed out sometimes. However it can be re-enabled by choosing a
  different ISO image.

  I have made a little video to illustrate this.
