It would be interesting to see how various partition editors react on
this state of the USB stick. Can they reduce the size of partition 3 ?
Can they remove partition 3 and add on new one ?
That looked interesting. As I had a flash drive with Jessie's netinst on
it, I did a test run. It was not successful. The md5 of the code was
correct.
I am running Debian 8.6.0 with MATE desktop.
Clicking on the drive's icon and selecting properties reports:

A copy-n-paste from my terminal is:
