I'm still surprised with these steps, I think really should be changed
to something that works, and won't destroy your data if you execute
exactly like it is written.

gparted ${USBSTICK}
mkfs.ext4 ${USBSTICK}

I wrote before to this list, but nobody see any fail in this
instructions, I don't understand really. I think shouldbe at least
mkfs.ext4 ${USBSTICK_PART2}

Thanks!
