I'm not sure what you mean by 'getting the standard partition scheme'. Are you talking about the install from the newly-written Fedora disk? Or the actual layout of partitions on the USB storage you just wrote? Fedora Media Writer doesn't do anything different than dd, it just writes the ISO to the disk. It doesn't change the partition scheme, it doesn't affect the install, it just puts the ISO image of the Fedora installer on the removable disk. -- Jonathan Billings <billings@xxxxxxxxxx> _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
