Bug Description
Binary package hint: usb-creator
The usb-creator-helper process tries to unmount all partitions before formatting, but it passes on any exceptions. When a partition cannot be unmounted, this causes it to proceed to the PartitionTableC
usb-creator 2009-10-26 10:22:14,748 (ERROR) backend.py:252: Could not format the device:
Traceback (most recent call last):

message, timeout)
DBusException: org.freedesktop
To fix this, we should handle exceptions in unmounting a device by using devicekit-disks to find out what files are open on the device and pass that information on to the user interface. We should also handle general exceptions in the Format method and pass that along to the user interface so it can provide a generic "format failed" message.
