Unraid doesn’t use images you can download. They check the USBs UUID GUID 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
dd literally has the nickname “disk destroyer”, and it is a well-earned title. Once you have a bad default choice and no pre-installed alternative, you’ll have at minimum 3 competing tools. Just the way the world works.
Is Dd not an option? I dont get why every distro need their own usb image writer when dd and ventoy already exist.

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?
