[Bug 1300361] Re: [SRU] cannot format when no partition table is present

[Yu Ning]

I made some tests on trusty with usb-creator-{common,gtk} 0.2.56.3.

1. create a usbstick with no partition table
2. erase it with usb-creator-gtk

I can erase it without popup error, but after the erasing it prompt
"There is not enough free space for this image." and the "Make Startup
Disk" button is inactivated. But if I erase it again now the prompt
disappears and the button is activated, and I can burn the ISO image
successfully.

So I think the issue is properly fixed. I'll update the tags for Trusty.

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  cannot erase the disk when no partition table is present

  [Test Case]
  cat /dev/zero >> /dev/sdX to erase the partition table (you can ctrl-c immediately, it's enough that the first bits are erased)

  [Regression Potential]
  Should not affect negatively the normal use case (=usb stick with partition table, one partition vfat formatted).
