Title:
  Format action wipes all partitions

Status in “usb-creator” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: usb-creator

  I have two partitions on my stick: FAT-32 boot partition and Ext-4 without journal one. So, the program shows: 1) FAT partions, Ext 4 partition, Whole drive.
  I can only choose one item in the list: fat, ext4 or whole drive. I suppose the utility only formats selected partition (and leaves other ones alone) or formats the whole drive into Fat-32. But it doesn't. It formats the whole stick into one big Fat-32 partition, which is highly inconsistent.
