    Help creating a Windows 10 bootable USB using Linux


    Hi,

    I am trying to create a bootable Win10 usb using dd on Linux.

    When I try to boot from the pen drive, nothing happens, the pc just boots straight into the Linux Mint (cinnamon edition) OS I have installed.

    I tried the following:

    sudo dd bs=4M if=Win10_20H2_v2_English_x64.iso of=/dev/sdb conv=fdatasync status=progress

    and it created the .iso pen drive but it does not boot. However, I managed to get the same .iso file to boot and install successfully in VirtualBox.

    Furthermore, when I do

    sudo dd bs=4M if=linuxmint-20.1-xfce-64bit.iso of=/dev/sdb conv=fdatasync status=progress

    it works and boots Linux Mint (Xfce edition) from the Pen Drive.



    What am i doing wrong?



    Thanks!

    Multi-bootable USB

    Hey guys from TPU, couldn't find any specific thread pertaining to the question asked on title. As mentioned, I'm trying to create a bootable USB, but with many specifics boots available.

    I've been trying to create one with multiple boot device including one that enables me to run Windows 10 directly on the USB Thumb Drive but to no avail.

    The list of bootable images i'm trying to create are

    1. Windows 10 (A full OS running from thumb drive)
    2. Windows 10 ISO (Bootable disk image for fresh install)
    3. MemTest86+

    Have tried YUMI or UUI from the website USB PenDrive Linux but as this is my first time, i don't know how am i screwing up or am doing it right.. Anyone got a rough idea on a step by step guide? Thanks!
