Hi,
I just tried to install with it on my Debian machine and got following
error:

"tails-latest.iso selected
Clearing unreadable partition table.
Partitioning device /dev/sdc
Formatting /dev/sdc1 as FAT32
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.UDisks2.Error.Failed: Error creating file
system: Error spawning command-line `mkfs.vfat -I -n "Tails"
"/dev/sdc1"': Failed to execute child process "mkfs.vfat" (No such file
or directory) (g-exec-error-quark, 8)
Tails installation failed!
udisks-error-quark: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.UDisks2.Error.Failed:
Error creating file system: Error spawning command-line `mkfs.vfat -I -n
"Tails" "/dev/sdc1"': Failed to execute child process "mkfs.vfat" (No
such file or directory) (g-exec-error-quark, 8) (0)"

I'm using a device on which a Tails with persistence was installed
before. I deleted all partitions with gparted and tried once more, the
error message is still the same.

Also the window turns grey, see this screenshot:

(would it be an idea to add a button to retry the installation?)

Cheers!
