How to make a live USB of any operating system?

[swhnk-puppy]

Hi everyone, I am writing to you if there is an application in Puppy that allows me to create disk images (not from Puppy but from any ISO) on a USB stick such as in Mint or Manjaro where in the Utility section I find the function (I don't want to advertise them). Or ask to suggest me a program to download from PPM that allows me to do this.
Creating a live USB of any operating system and the tree view on the left in the RoxManager are the only things I miss.
Thanks

Hello swhnk-puppy.

Give ISObooter here a shot then report back with your findings.

Update: There's also, PARTIALLY TESTED by me >> https://distrotest.net/

PS, I think I misunderstood your intentions on booting other Linux from Puppy. How to make a live USB of any operating system? The creators of the operating system determine if they want a live USB when the make/create the .ISO file. You just write that .iSO file to a USB flash drive. What is inside is determined by the creators/makers of that .ISO file.

Note: that the .ISO file is already built and created. You just have to write the sequence of bytes to the USB flash drive medium.

Open a Terminal Window. Use these sequence of commands to look around and determine what your USB Flash device is!

Code: Select all

df -h
blkid
fdisk -l

echo " Simple powerful UNIX command to write .ISO file to a USB Flash Drive"
dd if=my_other_OS_file.iso  of=/dev/sdX  bs=4M   

Where 'X' is a,b,c, or d which device is your USB flash drive?
'if=' is the input file
'of=' is the output file
'bs=' is the block size
'count=' is the count of blocks to write. Not used in this example.

Be careful because the 'dd" command will write raw stream of bytes to that device [Overwriting the previous data there], which might be your HARD drive with your Favorite Operating System.

Is there a method of using Etcher Electron application on PuppyLinux or Windows or Mac or Linux
