Hi all, I created a bootable usb stick using usb-creator. Everything went great, I was able to boot from it and install and everything. Problem is, I now want my usb stick back.
How can I wipe it?
When I plug the stick in, nothing happens (it doesn't mount). When the stick was empty, it auto-mounted beautifully. I ran
and only see my hard drive listed, so thus I cannot manually mount it:

I have done the pre-requisite Googling, without any luck.
