Weird, you could try Fedora Media Writer, that's on Flathub

Kyle Gospo•5/5/24, 4:04 PM

It's possible Balena detected CSM and wrote it for a traditional BIOS

Kyle Gospo•5/5/24, 4:04 PM

Haven't used it enough to be 100% on that

Is there a particular partition type and such needed for the drive?

Dd10sfan Is there a particular partition type and such needed for the drive?

Kyle Gospo•5/5/24, 4:05 PM

I just use whatever Fedora Media Writer does by default, should be a standard bootable drive for UEFI

d10sfanOP•5/5/24, 4:05 PM

I'll give that a try

d10sfanOP•5/5/24, 4:05 PM

Thanks

Kyle Gospo•5/5/24, 4:09 PM

No problem

Kyle Gospo•5/5/24, 4:10 PM

I just realized you're the luxtorpeda dev, I'm a big fan of it

Kyle Gospo•5/5/24, 4:10 PM

Thanks for making it

d10sfanOP•5/5/24, 4:12 PM

I use gnome disks to flash images

antheas•5/5/24, 4:14 PM

Underated software

antheas•5/5/24, 4:14 PM

Only one that works properly in Linux I think. Although KDE partition manager looks really fancy now

antheas•5/5/24, 4:14 PM

Dunno if you can use it to flash images tho

Exceed•5/5/24, 4:16 PM

100% love gnome disks more than kde partition manager

Exceed•5/5/24, 4:16 PM

@Kyle Gospo @Jan thoughts?

EExceed 100% love gnome disks more than kde partition manager

wolfyreload•5/5/24, 4:25 PM

I'd agree on that point, kde partition manager is just confusing for me. But I'm enjoying dolphin more than gnome files (think it was previously called nautilus).

antheas•5/5/24, 4:26 PM

imo makes sense to call it files, the project is still called nautilus

antheas•5/5/24, 4:27 PM

the fact you cant double click to get the path is enraging

antheas•5/5/24, 4:27 PM

and the funny thing about it is that it supports getting the path with ctrl+l
