Something strange to me: it is said: Fedora Media Writer destroys all data on the USB stick. If you need a non-destructive write method (to preserve existing data on your USB stick) or support for 'data persistence', you can use the livecd-iso-to-disk utility on Fedora. Then, livecd-iso-to-disk Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-30-1.1.iso /dev/sdX where X could be (if I am correct) c (/dev/sdc) Why this will preserve the USB stick? I would have understand if it was /dev/sdc1 (or something else).
Where did you see that message? The man page suggests using a partition (e.g. /dev/sdc1), not the whole disk device.
Doing livecd-iso-to-disk Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-30-1.1.iso /dev/sdc would preserve my partitions sdc1, sdc2 ?
Yes, it will, unless you use the --format option which is usually what I do. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
