Bug Description
Binary package hint: usb-creator
usb-creator shows ridiculously large times when it records an image. Up to 220 minutes or so. I assume my USB 2.0 is not so slow...

I confirm that time calculation is inaccurate relative to the actual amount of time it takes to make the bootable disk. As well, the time is not sequential (that is to say the estimated time varies and goes faster/slower). This should be abstracted for the user and the time should be properly pre-calculated.
