Hi Chris, Sorry, I'm not sure how to reply within the bug tracking system.....this is my first.
1) I'm using this debian live image: 2612133888 Jan 28 00:42 debian-live-11.1.0-amd64-mate.iso 2) See below for results using both -w=never and --wipe=never on the USB stick. -w reports as unsupported wipe mode (!) and --wipe=never seems to have no effect. (warning about ISO9660 comes up even though it was told to NEVER wipe). My dd command was as follows: barbed2@vostro:/nas1/ISO-IMAGES$ dd if=debian-live-11.1.0-amd64-mate.iso | sudo dd of=/dev/sdf bs=4M status=progress oflag=direct =================== begin snip ==================== root@vostro:/nas1/ISO-IMAGES# fdisk -w=never /dev/sde fdisk: unsupported wipe mode root@vostro:/nas1/ISO-IMAGES# fdisk --wipe=never /dev/sde Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.36.1). Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them. Be careful before using the write command. The device contains 'iso9660' signature and it may remain on the device. It is recommended to wipe the device with wipefs(8) or fdisk --wipe, in order to avoid possible collisions. Command (m for help): =================== end snip ==================== Thanks again, pls let me know if there's anything else I can provide. David
