Asked By CasualCoder42 On

I've recently settled into using Linux and I'm working on an emulation console project. Now I need a tool to write ISO or IMG files to an SD card. I used to use Rufus on Windows, but I'm not sure what to do in Fedora and Linux Mint since they don't seem to recognize IMG files easily. I've noticed a lot of programs pop up in the Linux Mint software manager when I search for ISO or IMG tools, but I'm unsure which ones are effective. Any recommendations would be really appreciated!

You can try using Fedora Media Writer; it supports writing raw disk images really well. If you're on Linux Mint, check out the 'mintstick' package, which also does a great job with ISO and IMG files.

Thanks for the tip! I tried Fedora Media Writer but I'm having trouble. I downloaded an IMG file from GitHub, but it doesn't show up when I'm trying to browse for it. I even moved it to my desktop to see if that helped.
