faster method:
First open the Disks Application under Applications > Disks
Select the bootable pen drive.
There will be an option menu on top right corner
Select the Format drive option (CTRL + F)
A pop-up will be shown. Select 0 partition and format the disk
Now the disk will be empty but it will be not recognized by system. But you can see on Disks Application.
Select the pen drive and re-format it. Now the pendrive can be detect by any system.
Alternatively you can $ sudo gparted
and then recreate the partion
:)
