Hi all,
I've used DiskmakerX 3.0.1 stable two days ago to create a bootable usb
stick and it worked fine. Its true, that the progress window is not
displayed all the time, but thats no problem. When the creation process
has finished a sound is played and a message says that everything worked
fine.
The latest stable version 3.0.1 can be downloaded here:

Cheers,
Christian
