In the Linux system, use the DD command to make the ISO image U disk boot disk

  

My current system is Linux (version Xubuntu). I used to make this Linux system U disk under Windows system through UltraISO. Boot disk, however, under the Linux system through the system itself integrated DD command, to achieve the Linux system U disk boot disk under Linux system, a simple code can be fixed. It is possible to smoothly install an ISO image system through a USB flash drive for a computer that does not have a system or needs to reinstall the system.

Tools required: Linux system, U disk, ISO image file.

First open the terminal in the Linux system, use the DD command, the format is as follows:

sudo dd if=xxx.iso of=/dev/sdb

xxx in the command. Iso is the path of your ISO image file, and the path of your U disk behind of= is usually /dev/sdb or /dev/sdc (do not bring 1 or 2 numbers later).

How to confirm the U disk path: Input in the terminal:

sudo fdisk -l

Full instance:

sudo dd if=/home/mtoou/Download /xubunut.iso of=/dev/sdb

Meaning: Write the xubuntu.iso image file located in the /home/mtoou/download/directory to the sdb disk. After the above DD command is input and the carriage return is executed, the system starts to make the boot disk. During the terminal command window, there will be no feedback, but the U disk can be read and written by the U disk running indicator. This process may continue. It takes 5 or 6 minutes to complete. When you see the terminal command window has a return message, the production is completed.

Tip: This article only uses the DD command to make Linux disk U disk boot disk under Linux system. It has not been tested to make Windows system boot disk using this command. Of course, if you have questions or comments, welcome feedback.
