How to "burn" ISO/img/cue+bin to USB drive?

Solution 1:

Ok I see the problem. The LBA sizes are different on USB and CD-ROM drives. 512 vs 2048.

So a boot sector designed for a CD won't run on a USB drive.

Solution 2:

Try Unetbootin, it works for Linux distros. Also surf on over to the hak5 website, they had a couple of episodes dealing with what they call the USB mutlipass for putting multiple isos on a usb drive.

Solution 3:

It is possible but not straightforward: http://www.boot-land.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=6436

Solution 4:

FlashBoot, although not free, is a great tool to make USB drives bootable. It supports converting a CD image to the USB drive.

Solution 5:

Ah, I would definitely recommend UltraISO Its asks you to pay, but is free to try for as long as you like with no features missing, and no annoy ware (ie. pop-ups every few minutes), It is really easy to use and will write bootable iso's to thumb drives and cd/dvd's (Ive used it for win7 and ubuntu), it will also give you full control over the iso to selectively copy items over.
