Red Hat Summit4.4. Creating a bootable USB device on Windows
You can create a bootable USB device on a Windows system with various tools. You can use Fedora Media Writer, available for download at https://github.com/FedoraQt/MediaWriter/releases. Fedora Media Writer is a community product and is not supported by Red Hat. You can report any issues with the tool at https://github.com/FedoraQt/MediaWriter/issues.
Creating a bootable drive overwrites existing data on the USB drive without any warning. Back up any data or use an empty flash drive. A bootable USB drive cannot be used for storing data.
Prerequisites
- You have downloaded the full installation DVD ISO or minimal installation Boot ISO image from the Product Downloads page.
- You have a USB flash drive with enough capacity for the ISO image. The required size varies.
Procedure
- Download and install Fedora Media Writer from https://github.com/FedoraQt/MediaWriter/releases.
- Connect the USB flash drive to the system.
- Open Fedora Media Writer.
- From the main window, click and select the previously downloaded Red Hat Enterprise Linux ISO image.
- From the Write Custom Image window, select the drive that you want to use.
- Click . The boot media creation process starts. Do not unplug the drive until the operation completes. The operation may take several minutes, depending on the size of the ISO image, and the write speed of the USB drive.
- When the operation completes, unmount the USB drive. The USB drive is now ready to be used as a boot device.
