I am running usb-creator-gtk
.
After copying files it says: "system policy prevents installing the bootloader".
Why does it say this? I am not trying to modify my system. I am creating a bootable USB drive. I don't understand why modifying a thumb drive would require administrator privileges.
Disks
utility (gnome-disks
) can be used as a replacement forusb-creator-gtk
(there is an option called "Restore Disk Image"). This also requires administrator privileges, but I got the sense that it was less buggy thanusb-creator-gtk
. Just be sure that you select the correct USB device.dd
utility to copy the.iso
file to the USB device.
