How can I create a bootable USB from an ISO on macOS Catalina?
Asked by

I'm trying to install Linux Fedora on my late 2012 Mac Mini, but the latest version of macOS I can run is Catalina 10.15.7. I need an application or a Terminal command to write the Fedora ISO to a USB stick, but I've had no luck with Terminal commands and can't find an app compatible with Catalina for this task. Any suggestions would be really appreciated!

You can use the `dd` command in Terminal, which is similar to what Linux uses. You’ll need to first find the correct device node with the `diskutil` tool, then unmount the USB if it’s mounted. After that, you can use `dd` to write the ISO. Check out this tutorial for more details on the steps! It's pretty straightforward once you follow it.
