More and more as time goes by I am having a worse time creating bootable USB disks from various iso's on linux. I think this is relevant to xda because there are those of us who don't have windows machines readily available. There are tons of tutorials out there for creating bootable usb windows installers from linux and bootable usb linux installers from linux.
But specifically the areas where I have lately had no choice to wait until I could find a windows machine that I could use rufus on are the ones I think would be beneficial.
Having to resort to using rufus on windows is embarrassing being a linux guy.
Specifically these are the cases where I can no longer find the magic to create a bootable USB from the linux side:
Phoenix OS iso -> USB installer
Remix OS iso -> USB installer
Vmware ESXi iso -> USB installer
Again, creating windows or linux installers works, but those above have just gotten infuriating. Anyone able to help?
Thanks

So... this took me forever searching online and such to find out how to get my stupid USB drives working on Ubuntu that I'm loading on VirtualBox (Mac OSX host).. I installed the extension for VirtualBox and enabled the USB stuff in settings and thennnnnnn the part I was missing was you just have to eject the drives from the Mac so that Ubuntu on the VirtualBox has a chance (?) to access the USB drives... Such a simple fix for such a drive me INSANE problem!
Hi guys, I am trying to get the net install Ubuntu onto my sbk2 device. I'm having trouble finding a program to do this on windows. I would really not want to have to setup a dual boot linux / windows on my desktop instead saving that as a last alternative..... Any help would be much appreciated.
You could install linux to a usb stick and boot from there. Insert your 4GB+ usb stick and run the live cd/usb. You should have an option to install to the usb and be sure to install grub tto the usb stick, not your primary hard drive.
My recommendation would be to skip the windows dual boot and just install linux!
Hello All,
I have a specific question here - I use a program called Sardu to boot into various distros/install windows/troubleshoot PCs. What I would like is to have an ISO of any linux distro (linux mint or DSL comes to mind) that has ADB previously setup and working in a persistence file (very basic linux knowledge here, not sure if it's possible).
Basically I want to be able to choose said linux distro from my bootable USB - launch it any PC i have access too and be able to run ADB commands for the purpose of troubleshooting/rooting of friends/colleagues android devices etc...
If this is at all possible, I am willing to learn the steps needed. I'm not looking for someone to do the work for me (however that would be awesome too ) but I am out of my depth and would love for this to be possible.
TIA for any and all help,
Josh

Look up how to mount an iso read write.
Then mount the iso and add your adb files.
Then write the iso to usb.

Yeah, check your UEFI boot in the bios though, use legacy boot instead.
Before installing it will ask if you want to partition the drives, seperate the windows and then install on the new partition. (This is where you risk wiping the windows data, so be careful.)
Also while separating partitions, might be an idea to set up storage you can access on both sides. I use a vm ssh server with a VHD on a seperate partition.
Finally, id find a different distro, kali is notoriously breakable. There are some much more stable options with the same pentesting/security tools available.
I have an issue installing any OS other than windows on a Linx 1020 Tablet. It is locked with secure boot which is I am unable to disable and insall anything. I want to install Linux on to it. Can someone help me out. Thanks

I have, but i still cannot disable secure boot.
With the tablet connected to the keyboard change the settings you require in the secure boot screen then press F10 on the keyboard. This allows the new settings to be saved. I have already tried MXLinux and Lubuntu with no joy so far. mainly autorotation not working or wifi. Good luck.
