Hi all.
I know there are a fair few KXStudio users on this list and I've been
meaning to try this distro for a while. So I have downloaded the 64bit
version from their website and checked its integrity with the md5sum.
All seems good and correct. However when I try and create a bootable USB
to run/install it I can not boot from the USB key!
The method I use is:
sudo dd if="path-to-image" of="/dev/sdb" bs=1M
This method has worked perfectly well for creating a bootable USB drive
for other distributions using the exact same USB drive!
Why wont this give me a bootable KXStudio USB drive? What do I need to
do instead?
Regards, Dale.

KXStudio documentation suggests to use unetbootin. Maybe the image is
not isohybrid. See
http://kxstudio.sourceforge.net/Documentation:Manual:downloading_and_bootin…
I burned and installed DVD and it worked fine.
6:42 p.m.
I've been using KXStudio for some time & have made lots of live USB sticks. Both
32 & 64 bit versions.
While on some other distros I needed to use dd, on Kxstudio, Unetbootin always works fine.
I tend to wipe the stick first in gparted & reformat to fat32 & add the
'boot' flag. Not sure the flag is needed. This always works fine on most o my
machines, old and newer.

Thanks both, managed to get unetbootin installed this morning so will
give it a go. Was hoping to avoid having to install anything for the
same reason I didn't manage to read their docs. Internet was being worse
than bad on both options I have! ~100-300ms ping and worse than 50%
packet loss on wifi and 10-30 second ping ~5% packet loss on my mobile
broadband making loading pages nigh on impossible! Luckily things are a
little smoother at 5.30am... ;-)
