  • Rufus

  • windick

    Windows Deployment Image Customization Kit

    • That's got to be the most impressive .cmd script I've ever seen.

  • bootiso

    A bash program to securely create a bootable USB device from one image file.

    • But when I said "shell script" I was hoping for "POSIX shell script". Rather like this POSIX shell script that attempts to make any ISO into a bootable USB media.
