Hi Chris,

Thanks for adding those detailed comments to the bug report :-)

The problem seems to be that the Startup Disk Creator cannot manage the
Wily iso files, while other tools can do it.

I hope that Marc gets green light to go ahead and convert the Startup
Disk Creator into a cloning tool. I'm sure he can make it reliable that way.

Best regards
Nio
