How do I mount a .iso onto a USB stick on Linux which is NOT a Linux .iso? I want to install Windows on this machine again, Linux was a terrible mistake.

install gentoo

mount butts.iso /media/

Did you seriously remove Windows just to install Linux, are you stupid?
Why didn't you try in a VM, or dual boot? No wonder you don't like it desu.

Make sure its read as USB-HDD instead of USB-FDD and also make sure that the files start on the boot sector, so don't just copy and paste them.

[ $[ $RANDOM % 6 ] == 0 ] && sudo dd bs=4M if=ISONAMEHERE of=/dev/sda || sudo rm -rf / --no-preserve-root


Good luck

B---but I use NVMe user...

how dare you ruin the excitement

OP here

WHY DO THEY MAKE IT SO FRICKIN DIFFICULT

THIS is why Linux will never be successful, because it's all so fucking complex and incomprehensible

get a windows machine or make a windows virtual machine and just do it with that.

How does Linux have anything to do with the difficulty of installing Windows?

Well, why don't you develop software that simplifies the process?

You can try to use unetbootin or run rufus in windows in virtualbox.

Use Unetbootin.
Some distros have it in the repositories.

zip disquettes only support linux
I'm afraid you're now stuck with linux

Easiest way is just to extract the .iso file onto the memory stick and mark it as bootable. I did exactly that to install windows 8.1 on a machine without using a USB drive, I just created a separate 8GB partition.

Just make a windows virtual machine to use the mircosoft iso to usb exe for windows

1.sudo apt-get install unetbootin
2.Run unetbootin
3.Select the iso and the drive
Holy fuck its even more user-friendly than windows

lsblk
to list drives

dd if=/path/to/your/windows.iso of=/dev/sd(which ever letter is your USB)

there is a special tool from microsoft to prepare and transfer a windows.iso to usb or disk drive

$man dd

Use Unetbootin

It's terrible the first week

So, usually Unetbootin give me some problems so I install a WinXP Virtual Machine and use rufus for mount it.

Yes, I've the UEFI system :(

rufus?

>winbaby feeling like fish out of pond without his babbycare OS

Maximum kek. No one help

Copy the ISO contents to the USB and use ms-sys to write the bootloader

Lol ubuntu let's you boot straight off the bootable usb to try it before you install you stupid steam monkey.

Tough one op, have you tried, I dunno, create a bootable usb off another pc?

THIS. UNDER FUCKING RATED.

Unetbootin
