Burn ISO-Image to USB-Flashmemory

Quelle1)

Byte-copy the image to a USB drive

Write image to a USB drive

You will need a USB drive with at least the capacity of the downloaded image. Note: A byte-exact copy of the ISO image must be placed on the USB drive. It is not sufficient to simply copy the image file to the drive.

Note: The contents of the USB drive will be completely erased.

Linux

Be sure the USB drive is unmounted before proceeding. Some Linux distributions auto mount the USB drive when it is inserted, which can cause corruption when writing. # umount <usb-drive>

Use either of these two methods:

Image Writer is a small python executable script that detects your USB drive and writes the image to it. The advantage of using image writer is that it will not inadvertently overwrite your system hard drive.

    Download [[http://git.moblin.org/cgit.cgi/moblin-image-creator/plain/image-writer|Image Writer]] (Right-click, Save Link As...)
      # cd <directory with downloaded image-writer file>
      # chmod a+x ./image-writer
      # ./image-writer <image file>

Use 'dd' from the command-line

Caution: 'dd' will overwrite any destination including your system hard disk. Make sure you know the correct value of <usb drive> before proceeding.

      # dd bs=4096 if=<image file> of=<usb drive>

Windows

There is a simple way to put the Moblin image on a USB drive.

  1. Download the Win32DiskImager.exe program: https://launchpad.net/win32-image-writer/+download (zip file)
  2. Unzip the file and extract the contents to a known directory
  3. Run W32DiskImager.exe (screenshot)
  4. Select the Moblin image file (.img)
  5. Select the drive letter which corresponds to the USB key
  6. Click the „Write“ button to byte-copy the image to the USB drive.

Mac OS X

Be sure the USB drive is unmounted before proceeding. OS X auto mounts the USB drive when it is inserted, which can cause corruption when writing. You can press the eject icon in Finder or drag the USB icon to the trash.

Use this method (thanks to Many Ayromlou for the instructions):

* Open a Terminal (Applications → Utilities → Terminal)

* Run

  diskutil list

to get the current list of devices

* Insert your flash media

* Run

diskutil list

again and determine the device node assigned to your flash media (e.g. /dev/disk2)

* Run

    <code>diskutil unmountDisk /dev/diskN</code>

(replace N with the disk number from the last command; in the previous example, N would be 2)

* Run

      sudo dd if=/path/to/downloaded.img of=/dev/diskN bs=1m

(replace /path/to/downloaded.img with the place you downloaded the image. You'll need your password for this.

* Run

diskutil eject /dev/diskN

(where N is the number we found above) and remove your flash media when the command completes

* You're done! Plug that USB into a netbook and enjoy Moblin
