[Bug 1198060] [NEW] usb creator constantly crashes during "installing bootloader"

[Alex Chubaty]

Public bug reported:

Since upgrading to 13.04 several months ago, I have yet to successfully
create a USB startup disk on any of my computers.

usb-creator consistently crashes before finishing making the live usb,
and the usb does not work properly afterward. Additionally, usb-creator
leaves the loopback device mounted, requiring manual dismounts.
