Sister communities:


Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    The power of Ventoy cannot contain Windows

    [–] ambrosiaforest@lemmy.blahaj.zone 14 points 7 months ago (11 children)

    which is ironic because afaik ventoy is the only way to make a windows installer from linux

    huh??
    you can just flash/dd the iso directly, no need for ventoy

    That didn't work for me the last time I tried it (and neither did Ventoy). I had to borrow a Windows PC and use the media creation tool.

    I've literally never used the media creation tool, i always installed windows from isos flashed with rufus/balena/dd/whatever

    [–] PlexSheep@feddit.de 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    Aren't Rufus and balena media creation tools?

    [–] vox@sopuli.xyz 6 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

    by media creation tool, i mean specifically the proprietary "Windows Media Creation Tool" that can be downloaded from the Microsoft website
