Title:
  usb-creator makes install disk write protected

Status in usb-creator package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Creating USB install disk with usb-creator works fine. Problem is that
  USB disk will be write protected. I remember in past I could add my
  own files to USB install disk. The only way to make USB writable again
  is to create new partitions. I bricked one of my USB when I tried to
  make it writable again by hacking with hdparm and other tools.

  I think USB install disk should be writable like it used to be.

  Kubuntu 16.04.
