Meego 1.2 img USB Boot for PC

hm...
you'll have to tell me how it works out once you have it up and running... As far as software to make a bootable usb.. hm... I tend to use win7 for doing such things.. (I know it seems a bit odd...but when burning usb sticks with bootable linux distros...I tend to use win7...the gui software is simple to complex depending on the need...and for the most part such win software is thoughtlessly easy....so saying...) the best piece of software I have found that is flexible and actually "looks at" the distro and flexes compatibility to cater to the distro in question...so the burning process goes well.... is RUFUS ... I have found rufus adapts to whatever new or outdated or old distro by grabbing whatever bits it needs at the time to accommodate the distro in question. I haven't ever had a prob with rufus ....unlike some of the other alternatives... However ...I haven't tried Meego...with rufus. That would be a new one for me...so I couldn't say whether it would work or not... But rufus is your best bet with windows. Forgot to mention... Rufus is constantly being updated, fixed and new versions come out frequently,....one of the better pieces of windows software out there. |

Yes, rufus is good - or best. With new linux distros like Mint you have image installer as default.

Try the wayback machine (internet archive)
Here's one link I found on there: https://web.archive.org/web/20120721...ia32-1.2.0.img The download started when I tried it, but it's over 800MB so I didn't download it all. |

If you are on linux, you can also use the dd command to copy the contents of the img file to the flash drive. Most, if not all linux distros will boot as is. Although not recently, I have done it this way many times.
$ sudo dd if=</path/to/file> of=/dev/<device> status=progress If you prefer GUI, then there is most probably a disk utility present on your system, which will do the same. For example I am using gnome and gnome-disks is pre-installed which allows to do the same using the the option "Restore Disk Image..." |
