I need to use a USB stick for installing Fedora 17 on a system and LiveUSB Creator is the program for creating a bootable Live USB sticks. As per the documentation, we need to use the Live ISO image to create a Live USB stick using this program. However, if the sole purpose is installation, can we use the installation CD or DVD ISO images for creating the USB installation media ? Thanks, Manish
Well, you could just dd the installation ISO to the usb stick, and then boot from the USB and install onto hard drive. I have already done that - with an interesting side effect. The system kept thinking that my USB stick was a cdrom and would not let me erase it (i.e. overwrite it). Perhaps I had done something wrong, I do not remember exactly what. Good luck. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
