usb-creator-gtk is buggy, update the wiki page?!

[hadi]

Hello everyone,

I tried using usb-creator-gtk for a usb persistent installation, yet I always faced a problem or technical difficulties of different kinds (eraser doesn't always work, hangs during the installation, ..etc)

Searching for the problem, I found this

Temporary edit: The startup disk creator version usb-creator-gtk is buggy in Lubuntu 13.04, Please install two additional packages, that help it work, either directly or via a PPA!

sudo apt-get install usb-creator-gtk python-gudev gir1.2-gudev-1.0
or
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jmarsden/lubuntu
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install usb-creator-gtk
Usb-creator-gtk in 13.10 is buggy too, but this way it is possible to make persistent live drives (at least in Lubuntu 13.10 'Saucy'). Let it wipe whatever is on the USB pendrive and then create a partition and file system: Click on Erase disk! [Testing the usb-creator-gtk in the release candidate, it had to be run twice (both times wiping with 'Erase disk') to succeed. The first time it crashed early, the second time it created a good boot drive (from the Lubuntu Saucy 32-bit desktop iso) and then crashed with segmentation fault.]

If you still have problems with usb-creator-gtk, as a temporary workaround, you can try using the KDE flavour usb-creator-kde

sudo apt-get install usb-creator-kde

usb-creator-kde worked like a charm from the first time...

I was just wondering if adding these lines of information into the wiki page may help others?
