I've used dd forever, but nowadays these also work equally well (same speed and reliability):
cp fedora.iso /dev/sdx
cat fedora.iso > /dev/sdx
I wish I knew what changed. Smarter block sizes? Something about the raw device or ioctl?
- voidz 10y agoThey're both faster because they don't read and write block by block. Why people keep recommending dd for stuff like this, I don't have a clue.
