Create Bootable USB Using Etcher

Post by l6vibq »

Balena Etcher is a great tool for making bootable USBs. It is fast and has an amazing UI. Also, it is very easy to install and use.
  • Head over to the official Etcher website and download the Appimage for LINUX X64.
  • Right-click on the app image and click on properties.
  • In the permission tab, find and check the “Allow executing as a file program” option.
  • Double-click on the App image to open Etcher. If nothing happens, fire up the terminal, head over to the directory where the app image is located, and run the following command without quote.
    ./balenaEtcher-x.x.xxx-x64.AppImage
  • Replace the x.x.xxx with the version that you have downloaded. For example, balenaEtcher-1.5.116-x64.AppImage. Wait for a couple of seconds until Etcher launches and when it does, here’s what you’ll see.
  • To flash a USB drive, select the ISO that you’ve downloaded.
  • Select the target USB device from the list of devices, and finally.
  • Click on the Flash! Button.
