[Bug 1273925] [NEW] usb-creator-gtk fails to finish erasing a usb drive

[Doug McMahon]

Public bug reported:

Test case:
open usb-creator-gtk on a usb drive that has been used before & needs erasing
click erase
What happens:
The erase process never completes though after a bit the "Make Startup Disk" box becomes active
If the  "Make Startup Disk" box  is clicked on the s-d-c closes with an installation failed message
Otherwise 'erasing disc' just goes on & on.

If s-d-c is closed & then re-opened the disc drive will have been erased
& installation proceeds normally
