Dump Mageia ISO on a USB flash drive
For Microsoft Windows, you can choose one of the following tools:
Rufus
. For older Rufus versions (v2.x and below) you must use the "DD Image" option - this is also mentioned in the
rufus FAQ
. Current Rufus versions should automatically detect this.
Win32 Disk Imager
, for recent versions of Windows. You will need to change to "all files" when you attempt to open the .iso since it only allows .img by default.
WinImage
works fine on systems with restrictions, such as Microsoft Windows 7 Starter. See a dedicated page on the present wiki, on how to use it:
