MediaWriter VS unetbootin

According to the official Github page for Fedora Media Writer, it does:

Fedora Media Writer's repository contains this document on the subject: https://github.com/FedoraQt/MediaWriter/blob/main/CRYPTOGRAPHY.md

That's because it has been fixed already. The translatable string changed in this commit, and the translation tool apparently automatically mapped the old translation to it with a "Needs Editing" tag.

PS: for the ones using the official Fedora Media Writer to create a bootable USB from an .ISO... There's currently a new version in the making which is supposed to launch together with Fedora 36 - you can get preview-builds here: https://github.com/FedoraQt/MediaWriter/releases and some additional info on it here: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected]/thread/L2QQJ5CNJOQ7ZGKXPUPVZ7DU5UJ6BVFO/

It is: https://github.com/FedoraQt/MediaWriter/releases

Fedora Media Writer works fine for me. https://github.com/FedoraQt/MediaWriter

For anyone complaining that there is no nice GUI for dd on Linux and macOS, I recently discovered Fedora Media Writer [1] which works great for this job. Despite it’s name, it can be used with any ISO just like dd.

FWIW, the Fedora Media Writer works with any distribution's images, just select the "custom image" option and point it to whatever ISO you have.

format your USB drive and then you can retry with your software again, or you can try with a piece of software I know works successfully. https://unetbootin.github.io/

Linux on a USB large enough to hold your files. Linux does not care what OS made the file. You mat be able to Boot from the USB. Access the BIOS and try it. UNetbootin can also be used to load various system utilities. https://unetbootin.github.io/

I think UNetbootin could create a bootable installer directly from your current drive.

This is what you want. Bootcamp is the old way to do it. You want to use This for making a usb

use rufus or unetbootin to make setup the drive

You want to test out? Get a live image. You can put it on a bootable flash drive, too (e.g., unetbootin). Changes to the computer then require your explicit consent. (If the Ubuntu partition is encrypted, you might not access the data from an other Linux except with the credentials, though.)

I have sometimes had problems with ubuntus and mints image writer. I have found the dd method to be more effective. Since the dd command has the potential to be dangerous you really want to make sure that the usb destination location is correct. dd will write over any drive you tell it to indiscriminately! If the dd option is not something you feel comfortable with there are other options as there are other live usb image writers out there for linux. I have used and liked unetbootin
