Thanks, Thiago. That helped. Wrote a new partition table to the USB drive, created a FAT32 partition, used sudo usb-creator-gtk --iso=ubuntuxxx.iso, told it to erase drive, than it worked.
Can't believe usb-creator is still full of problems.
Using 11.10 64 bits here, fully updated.

Title:
Regression: usb-creator-gtk fails to set the boot flag on the
partition and exits.
Status in “usb-creator” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in “usb-creator” source package in Lucid:
In Progress
Bug description:
As of the latest update (0.2.16), usb-creator-gtk doesn't work. When
trying to install a live USB, the program says that the installation
of the bootloader failed, and then quits. I have tried the Jaunty CD,
Jaunty ISO and Karmic ISO with both space reservation options. Another
side effect is that a loop device is created, but not unmounted, so
after eight tries (eight loop devices), a different message
("Installation failed") appears because of the unavailability of a
loop device.
