We use the term "burning" when referring to flash media to mean writing the file to the raw media, destroying whatever filesystem was there. When inserting that flash media the computer acts as if you inserted a CD/DVD, and can boot directly from it. dd if=somefile.iso of=/dev/sdd It is equivalent to burning to a DVD using burning software. Only a single ISO can be burned to a given stick. > > Providing an iso file to your friend is sufficient as they can mount it > locally and "play" it. I don't *think* there's any need for you to burn > anything to a flash drive. Right. -- Cheers, Carlos.
