I got this crash consistently several times in a row while trying to update my USB stick to Quantal. After reading through the comments, I tried the following experiment:

1. Run USB Disk Creator, but at the first prompt for password (for writing the boot information), I opened a terminal and called "sync", then waited for that to return.
2. After that completed, I went back to the prompt window and typed in my password.
3. I went ahead and selected a persistence file and USB Disk Creator completed without crashing.

I'm running Quantal amd64 and the image I used was the Quantal amd64 image.
