I don't know what the context is here, but are you sure you're booting

The laptop has a new drive, unformatted and I'm trying to get Fedora
installed on it. My desktop has a working system on it, but if I try to
boot from the flashdrive, it fails in the same way that it does on my
laptop.
dd if=f38.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=1M
Which iso image is this? Since you've renamed it, there's no indication
of what it is.
That's good. You can mount the USB drive to verify that the files are
there.
I did and it does.
I don't know why it's not working for you, unless there's something
funny with your BIOS. Have you tried both UEFI and legacy modes?
I created a boot drive using dd with the Workstation image and it worked
fine on everything I've tried, including an old mac mini which is now
running Fedora.
And the correction was using M instead of m.
Shouldn't matter either way, other than probably being more efficient
with M.
If so, why did dd fail until I used M instead of m?
Sorry, I forgot the result of the earlier thread. "m" is invalid. The
two options are "M" and "MB".
