com/community/ Installation/ FromUSBStick An alternative is a list of tools, or a link to a community wiki page, for example I cannot tell which tool should be the official one, but I can suggest 'Disks' alias gnome-disks in versions where it is included in the default system. People like me, who help less experienced users at the Ubuntu Forums, have been suggesting and even made other tools to create USB boot drives. Starting with 16.04 LTS, I think everybody will be happy with it.īut the Ubuntu Startup Disk Creator has been buggy for years. I think the recommended method (when doing it from Ubuntu) should be the dedicated tool, the Ubuntu Startup Disk Creator.

The Startup Disk Creator (alias usb-creator-gtk) is revamped into a cloning device. The old version in the previous and still current versions 14.04 LTS and 15.10 will probably be around at the same time, which can make the information confusing unless it is explained that there are different versions. Please update com/download/ desktop/ create- a-usb-stick- on-ubuntu The documentation on the following web page needs updating for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, and version 0.3.2 of the Startup Disk Creator.
