I’ve been trying to find a linux programming similar to Rufus to flash images of OSes on a thumb drive.

Nothing from the listicles on the internet or the programs in flatpak have worked for me as well as Rufus on Windows.

What have you used that’s worked well? Or, could I run Rufus on my linux machine with WINE?

    I haven’t found a good GUI (Balena’s Etcher is cross platform, but the flatpak never worked for me)

    dd has never failed me

    sudo dd if=<path to ISO file> of=<path to USB> bs=4M status=progress conv=fsync

    (double, triple and quadruple check that the output file, of=, is the correct device with multiple different commands before running this)
