I have successfully used usb-creator-kde 0.2.22 with Lucid Kubuntu CD, but I had problems earlier that seem to have come from two sources. Originally, I was testing on a machine that would only boot USB sticks formatted with fat16 ("Could not find kernel image: linux"). I was able to work around that by copying the files produced by usb-creator-kde 0.2.8 onto a fat 16 formatted stick, but then ran into the problem that started this bug report.
My successful test used the vfat filesystem and was on a newer machine, but that stick still failed on the fat16-only machine.
So, usb-creator 0.2.22 looks good, but could be improved for use on older machines by allowing fat16 as a possible choice for formatting. Also, the documentation might point out the need to use 0.2.22 or newer version of usb-creator.
