Title:
usb-creator ignores selected source disk image
Status in “usb-creator” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
usb-creator ignores your selected .iso image, and defaults to auto-
selecting the first entry in the 'source disk image' window.
Steps to recreate:
1) run 'usb-creator-gtk'
2) click 'Other...' button to select an alternative 'source disk image (.iso) or CD'
3) navigate to your chosen .iso file in the file browser.
4) click 'Open' in the file browser.
5) observe that
5a) the file browser window closes
5b) your chosen .iso has been added to the list of available 'source disk images'
5c) your chosen .iso file is *not* the selected image.
The problem here is that if you don't notice that the image you
explicitly specified has *not* been selected as expected, usb-creator
will attempt to copy the wrong disk image to your destination disk.
The workaround is obvious, but only once you notice the problem -
click to select your already-selected chosen source disk image before
clicking 'Make Startup Disk'.
