Hi flocculant,

Maybe I do not understand what you mean:

I think you mean that we (the group at the discussion thread at the Ubuntu
Forums) should not try to replace the Startup Disk Creator, because it is
the best for ordinary users. We are too geeky, our issues with it are only
corner issues.

Please correct me if I am wrong :-)

Best regards
Nio
