Is Dd not an option? I dont get why every distro need their own usb image writer when dd and ventoy already exist.
Unraid doesn’t use images you can download. They check the USBs UUID before installing. I am not defending this, but as it’s going to be the boot device for the server this is a little handy feature.

the unique GUID in the device’s rom is what they tie your license to.

unraid does have instructions and software as zip files for manually preparing a flash drive to run their software from. you don’t have to use their scary binary media creator tool. see here

Manual install method | Unraid Docs

If for some reason the USB Flash Creator tool cannot be used, or your USB flash device is not detected, it is possible to manually format and prepare a bootable USB flash device.

So it’s just the daily misinformation on linuxmemes, classic.

6 memes were posted in this community in the last 24 hours, 3 of them were not fully true.

First day on the internet?
