The only working PC I have is a 32-bit x86 and has a minimal Debian installation. I need to flash a USB with an ISO file from it to make a live system. I tried for a few days to get flathub or appimage working there, but just can’t. I decided an apt package would be the easiest course of action, but neither Rufus, Impress or BalenaEtcher seem to be available in default repos. It there a program that is there? A bare .elf executable with no packaging would also be fine.
I always had to look up how to use the dd command until a few years back I saw somewhere that you can literally just use cp and the results won’t be worse in any way.
cp image.iso /dev/sdXThis works. You can also cat image.iso >/dev/sdx
I always laugh at windows users with their external random apps to do something elementary
there’s no fucking way
Real LPT in the comments.
dd if=image.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=64M status=progress
