Rufus has a strategy for dealing w/ 'non-hybrid' .iso/s to write to USB; 
that is to use its 'dd' function; so that is how it resolves the MGA 
'different' kind of hybrid.

I realize that 'talking about' Rufus which is Win only in a linux group 
is off-topic, but the MGA 'difference' goes beyond Rufus into the 
disktype story posted earlier.

I believe that MGA built its hybrid in the way it did so that it could 
perform in the manner described in that wiki page TJ referred.  But, it 
is 'unusual' (or unconventional) in the sense that other distro/s which 
are hybrid don't do it that way.
