Burn iso to usb

[Guest]

how you can burn iso image into usb drive?

I don't think you can. Are you thinking about installing linux from a usb drive? There are ways designed specially to do this, which you can find with a simple search. But the only way that you could make a usb drive run like a cd drive is to have some way to put an iso9660 format or emulator on it - and I don't think that that's possible.
On the other hand, if you are trying to do this from within an operating system and not on boot up, there are virtual cd drives which take iso files.

Yes, you can burn iso files to a usb. Go here:

This will take 3 minutes. There are many other tools to put XP, Vista, and even Windows 7 on a USB drive.
Know what you're talking about before you go and post.

PowerISO is a good software for this purpose, give it a try.

Easiest method is to use Rufus (available at http://rufus.akeo.ie/)!
Be sure "Create a bootable disk using: ISO Image" is checked &
click on the icon to the right to select the bootable ISO. You will
probably also have to run setup on computer boot up to put
usb first in boot priority so you can boot from usb. Rufus worked
perfectly the first time I used it & I have booted two different
computers using the usb I created with it. Best thing about
this program is no installation is required.

If you did want to put vista's iso on the USB drive it would proably be far too big. If it is Linux, you can but you have to check the MD5 Sum. I got a really good iso.usb tutorial on Wiki.answers. Hope you find this useful!

Rufus worked well and was much much faster than unetbootin.

Whatever you do DON'T use cnet.com's iso to usb installer on downloads.com. I installed it and it put a lot of adware, spyware, and illegal search engines on my PC. Fortunately it's all working now.

My antivirus tool, Vipre, tells me that wintoflash contains adware, so do NOT use it.

If you want to burn an OS disk or USB thumb drive from and iso file, you can use the windows iso download tool, which you can acquire from this link:

UNetbootin is amazing. Try that.

I can vouch for this tool. I have installed everything from Ubuntu to Windows 8.1 from flash drives prepared with unetbootin. The two places I ran into problems were Debian netinstall and pfSense. The debian netinstall image has a step where it always looks for a physical optical drive. If you're booting from a thumb drive it will error out and quit. For pfSense I have had the best luck using their .img files and using a dd like tool to do a raw write to the flash drive.

Rufus mate. it works wonders, all automated and noobishly easy to use

another vote for rufus - just used it for first time last week to create a bootable copy of windows 7 installation disk and had no issues, no malware, etc - just be sure to download from rufus's web not cnet etc

I need to move a CentOS 6.6 .iso from my linux machine to a VM Workstation running on a Win8.1 machine. Is rufus the way to go?
