Description

Tried to create a usb image of R8.iso

dd if=/path/to/LinHES.iso of=/dev/{usb_id} to transfer the R8 iso image to a usb drive.

dd completes without errors.

Ipl of USB drive returns "isolinunx.bin missing or corrupt"

Tried 5 different brand new usb sticks. Only one gave me trouble and that was cleared up after running the dd command a second time

dd if=my.iso of=/dev/sde bs=8M
sync

Try running sync before pulling the drive and/or adding bs=8M to the dd command.
