What it is

A small command-line utility for linux to create bootable usb-s fast and easy - written in python.

What it does

• Looks through your home directory and lists your ISO files (newest first) to choose one
• Lists your connected USB drives (by their brand and size for easy recognition) to choose one
• Unmount your selected USB if it's mounted
• Formats it as a FAT32 drive
• Puts your selected ISO on it (with the dd utility)

What it needs

• Python 2 or 3
• A system that has the following utilities installed: find, mount, mkdosfs and dd

Why would you need it

I'm the type of user how likes experimenting with different OS-s and distros and found it way too time consuming to manually create the bootable usb-s in the command line. I hope others find this useful as well.

How to install it

pip install bootable-usb

How to use it

Just run the following command and after that everything should be self-explanatory

bootable-usb
