1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

  • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    I've messed around with Linux before but, I can't seem to find the time to relearn how to get a thumb drive of an easy distro on one. One day I'll get the thing working.

    Thanks friend, for some reason I couldn't find this when I was googling "boot Linux from thumb drive". Much appreciated.

    If you use ventoy, you can put multiple ISOs on one USB.

    Ventoy is also my choice. You can just add .iso files on your usb disk and they are all bootable. Super easy

    sudo dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sda of course
