Bug description:
  Binary package hint: usb-creator

  I have a USB stick that uses a 2048-byte sector size. usb-creator
  fails with a 'Failed to install bootloader' error, although that's not
  the issue reported in .usbcreator.log: 'USBCreatorProcessException:
  syslinux: only 512-byte sectors are supported'.
