http://forums.fedoraforum.org – hello, i think it would do Fedora users a great service to yum install unetbootin. unetbootin is a great program that allows you to make a live usb for almost ANY linux operating system, i have also heard you can use it to make live usb images of windows xp and mac osx. its a great program that has come in very handy for me in the past, (when i was using ubuntu 9.04 on this same computer and had been searching for a work around for my onboard sound card problems for 20 hours straight with no solution until i got fed up and decided apt-get unetbootin and used it to install the new f11.) cheers http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ (HowTos)

I have made many Live USB Fedora (F11-F15) bootable pendrive OSs but have always ultimately had to burn the Live iso to a CD first - I for sure will do that again - if necessary, but now, I have been trying and really would like to get a bootable (1GB) Fedora 17 KDE stick without first burning the iso to a CD

I have the F17 KDE Live iso downloaded and have made the UNetbootin executable just

Fedora17 Unetbootin Live USB 34 weeks 3 days ago

Just got GW2 and a new video card. As you may know... GW2 doesn't support Fedora 17, so I installed windows 7 ultimate to a bootable usb drive... sadly there's more to it than this.

I'm trying to install unetbootin for fedora17... cannot find the download file. I mean... why is it so difficult to put the packages on the website in an easy to find place? Let me know if you find it here...

Unetbootin can't see usb drive 35 weeks 6 days ago

I am trying to make a usb backtrack but run into problems cause when I start unetbootin I can not see the USB drive.

I have made sure the drive was mounted. I also tried unmounted. I did a reformat of the usb stick, fat32. Did not help either.

From within puppy linux I can see the usb drive and I see that the drive is empty.

UNetbootin allows you to create bootable Live USB drives for Ubuntu, Fedora, and other Linux distributions without burning a CD. It runs on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X. You can either let UNetbootin download one of the many distributions supported out-of-the-box for you, or supply your own Linux .iso file if you've already downloaded one or your preferred distribution isn't on the list.

Unetbootin can be installled to a hard disk without destroying the existing system, and I have done this on a Windows box in order to install Linux in the past. You boot unetbootin which then downloads the files to install your distro of choice.I haven't done it, but maybe the installed unetbootin can install a distro from files on a usb stick instead of from the net?

Hi people.

I have installed Unetbootin from source.

Trying to install a update I get this error:

Code: Test Transaction Errors:  file /usr/share/applications/unetbootin.desktop from install of unetbootin-0-11.577bzr.fc17.x86_64 conflicts with file from package unetbootin-0-8.393bzr.fc13.i686   file /usr/share/doc/unetbootin-0/README.TXT from install of unetbootin-0-11.577

I downloaded the Linux executable for Unetbootin 494, and now I'm trying to run it. As root, I made it executable and attempted to execute it:

chmod +x unetbootin-linux-494 ./unetbootin-linux-494

Nothing happens and no output is displayed. ps -e | grep unetbootin shows nothing either. The file's size looks right (4.3 MB), although I don't see a checksum on sourceforge with which to verify it.
