I have never used any other method to write the Gentoo minimal ISO to a |
| 12 |
USB stick. And I also tried it on the most recent ISO as of yesterday |
| 13 |
with no issues. I'm curious why there seems to be so much difference in |
| 14 |
opinion on this. Maybe certain hardware doesn't work with this method? |
| 15 |
I'm just guessing here as I can't seem to reproduce the problem. |

As for your issue Joseph, have you tried using a tool like unetbootin? |
| 18 |
It would certainly simplify the process for you. I am a CLI purist at |
| 19 |
heart, but there comes a point where I would rather just get something |
| 20 |
done than stick to my ideals. |
