Hi. The different suggestions are not complete, are they?? Like: pv -parle </path/to/file.iso >/dev/sdX would rather be: sudo pv -parle </path/to/debian-live-10.10.0-amd64-gnome.iso>/dev/sdb And even not sure on that example as being correct. Please correct my possible failure/s in the above try. As you can see, I`m trying a -64bit- because Macbook 2.1 might fit it. And Gnome because it seems more complete. Saw another (relative) newbie said something similar concerning man pages in terminal: "Would be nice with example/s". BR, geg
