See my previous comment. Even if crashing, it seems "sudo usb-creator-
gtk" made a working USB boot stick.

Title:
usb-creator-gtk fails to install bootloader: "System policy prevents
installing the bootloader"
Status in “usb-creator” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
When creating USB stick from Ubuntu CD ISO image (or any other
bootable CD ISO image for that matter) upon finishing copying files
onto the USB stick I am getting an error message "System policy
prevents installing the bootloader"followed by password prompt. When I
enter the password, I get an error message "Failed to install
bootloader". The result is the USB stick with all necessary files on
it, but it is not bootable. I do have all administrative rights for
the account I am using.
And if I start usb-creator-gtk from a command line after "sudo -s" it
crashes with a segmentation fault just after copying files onto the
USB stick.
