windows 10 how to burn an iso to a usb thumb drive

It crops up way down the list as a blank space as I haven’t added a label to it. The other problem I had with my Knoppix bootable stick was bios settings. I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytesĭevice Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes It doesn’t work either.Ģ.1 fdisk of the 64GB drive after using cp Disk /dev/sdc: 58.6 GiB, 62932647936 bytes, 122915328 sectors I have even tried to dd an ISO image of the KDE Live CD on one of the USB sticks mention above. Or,how could I make something like dd work for me? If I understand correctly, the dd command indicates a very fundamental operation which should work under most, if not all, situations. I think, all the methods using dd or dd like mechanism do not work for my situation. All other methods, including the Rufus with DD image mode, failed. Rufus 2.14 (on Windows) (including 2 modes: ISO image and DD image)įor me, only Rufus 2.14 with ISO image mode works on all 3 USB sticks with and without “secure boot”.# cp openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-x86_64-Snapshot20170429-Media.iso /dev/sdc # dd if=openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-x86_64-Snapshot20170429-Media.iso of=/dev/sdc bs=4M status=progress sync The ISO image is openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-x86_64-Snapshot20170429-Media.iso. In some cases, the USB stick is re-formatted to narrow down the factors. The USB drives I tried are 8GB, 16GB and 64GB Kingston DataTraveler G4. “Fast boot” of the pre-installed Windows 10 has been disabled specifically. The computer has Windows 10 pre-installed and I was trying to install a dual boot openSUSE with it.

The computer is a new model of Lenovo ThinkPad T470s with USB 3.0 port. Here, “works” means I can boot from the USB stick and enter the system installation screen “failed” means the screen turns to black for 1 second or two then flashes back to EFI boot menu (all the tested failed situations are the same for me).

The installation uses EFI boot, testing with “secure boot” enabled and disabled. Please help me to find out why the dd command does not working for my situation. Here is a summary first and then some logs.

I tried several times last week when I needed to reinstall the system to a new hard drive. I have asked a similar question before: But it only works partially, sort of. I still have some problems on burning the installation DVD ISO Image of openSUSE Tumbleweed to a USB stick for system installation.
