Hi All,

Instead if making a Live DVD of

       Fedora-Live-Xfce-x86_64-23-10.iso

I wish to make a Live USB.  The goal is to use it
to install Xfce FC23 to new computers.

I know that the Live DVD has an install to hard drive option,
but I do not remember if Live USB has the same option.

Is this the proper way to destructive install this thing
to a USB flash drive (/dev/sdc)?

dd bs=4096 if=Fedora-Live-Xfce-x86_64-23-10.iso of=/dev/sdc

That should work.  Another way would be to use the livecd-iso-to-disk
command from a Fedora host.

Yet another alternative would be liveusb-creator which is a GUI program.

TYL,


Thank you!

I think I am doing something wrong.  Sums do not match.

# sha256sum Fedora-Live-Xfce-x86_64-23-10.iso /dev/sdc

Fedora-Live-Xfce-x86_64-23-10.iso

275a4d25bccb92fee667ef2500cd8eba7bb8dbe1546b08869116327771d8356d
/dev/sdc



It does boot up and there is an icon for "Install to hard drive".
Dare I trust it with the sha256 sums not matching?

"dd" seems to be a really sweet way to install this to a flash
drive.  Takes less than a minute.  Is dd for this something new?
