Newly converted to Triskel from Kubuntu, I'm happy with my desktop and want to put Triskel on my netbook. Since the netbook has no CD drive I have to do it with a USB stick/flash drive or whatever you like to call it.

That has worked in the past but it's failing now. I've downloaded the appropriate net-install ISO but I can't get it on the flash drive. When I use the basic "Startup Disk Creator" it doesn't even recognize the ISO, and it fails to Erase the selected flash drive. I tried several options from pendrivelinux.com without success. In particular, Unetbootin, which seems to work for lots of people, does absolutely nothing on my machine. I download it, make sure I have p7zip-full as directed by the instructions, chmod the downloaded file, and execute it: no response, no errors, nothing.

Have I failed to install something or configure my new system correctly? Does anyone have experience with making bootable USB drives?
