i just barely got competent using linux mint, i did not expect there to be such a learning curve to this. feels like trying to speak another language. can someone help me with the simplest route to restoring an iso to a usb?

Attach the USB device to an AppVM with the ISO and run

lsblk

Find the right device, it should be /dev/xvdX. X is the letter for your USB drive.

Then run

sudo wipefs -a /dev/xvdX && sudo dd if=linux-distro.iso of=/dev/xvdX status=progress

From a terminal that is in the path of your ISO file, for example if it’s in Downloads you need to cd ~/Downloads first.
