#BalenaEtcher

2025-06-16

I'm going to make one more try, this time using #Rufus instead of #BalenaEtcher . Just in case.

I love #KDE Partition Manager - and while I think the 'Backup' option is super neat, it'd be much more useful if it supports 'backing up' i.e. creating an image of an entire device/drive, rather than a single partition.

I know some apps like
#RaspberryPi's imager tool or #BalenaEtcher support this, at least I think they do, and perhaps even #Gnome Disks that people seem to often recommend over KDE Partition Manager - so I think it makes sense that such a feature should have its place in this app too.

Is there anything slower than watching #balenaetcher burn an Ubuntu desktop iso?

Distributionen kommen meist als (ISO-)Image, das dann ein Tool wie balenaEtcher auf einen USB-Stick schreibt. Letztgenanntes Werkzeug empfahlen ursprünglich auch die Tails-Entwickler. Mittlerweile raten sie jedoch von seinem Einsatz ab.#balenaEtcher #Rufus #Tails

Neues Linux-Live-System, neues Glück? Spätestens dann stellt sich die Frage nach einem Tool, um das ISO auf einen Stick zu schieben. Die grafischen Tools leisten sich offenbar immer wieder Schnitzer beim Datenschutz oder funktionerien nicht. Also doch lieber nur noch dd benutzen? Worauf setzt ihr?

#Tails and the @torproject no longer recommend using #balenaEtcher to create bootable USB sticks:

> "However, in 2024, the situation changed: balenaEtcher started sharing the file name of the image and the model of the USB stick with the Balena company and possibly with third parties. While we have not experienced or heard of any attacks against Tails users stemming from this change, we believe it introduces potential for abuse."

I'm using #BalenaEtcher with my external hard drive and a warning shows up. No idea if I'm getting into trouble.

2025-01-23

The amount of pain I go through to actually obtain a shitty #Windows11 ISO...does anyone have a copy of 24H2 for this build I'm donating to someone in need or should I just tell them to take it to Micro Center and have them install it?

I'm not turning off my VPN or firewall rules to download the ISO from M$
I'm not installing Windows for the sole purpose of using Rufus to burn it to a flash drive
It seems WoeUSB is no longer maintained and #balenaetcher says it might not be the best for the job

Kämpfe schon den ganzen Sonntag mit #Linux #cinnamon So wie es aussieht, bereitet schlussendlich #balenaEtcher die Probleme.
Wie geht ihr vor?
