    Open USB block device using gdisk /dev/sdc, configure it as GPT and create Microsoft basic data partition (code 0700), then write changes and quit (Next steps will destroy partition table in your USB drive!!!). sudo gdisk /dev/sdc o > This option deletes all partitions and creates a new protective MBR. > Proceed?
