What tool is this?
Just searched the menu for ‘format’ and got the USB-stick-formatter shown, so it is a built-in tool as I didn’t install an additional one.
Ok, thx to offer me alternative flashing tools. However, why does BalenaEtcher nor the built-in USB-formatter not work, while it does without any issue on any other Linux distribution but not on Garuda?
I’m pretty sure all this points toward a kind of rights issue from Garuda that is not automatically given on USB drives. I simply installed Garuda Cinnamon DE and additionally installed the tools I usually use from the Garuda repository. I did not change anything myself, so I can’t reconstruct that USB issue from any before used Linux distribution. As I couldn’t find any according notes with the forum search I posted the request for help. I do not use anything else than the usual offered distribution and tools from its very own sources.
So far I did:
- check different USB formatting and flash tools
- check Garuda ISO’s from different sources
- installed and tested with Garuda Cinnamon BTRFS + EXT4
- installed and tested with Garuda Dragonized edition
- installed and tested with included /home as well as with outsorced /home on an additional HD
- tried to view the rights by right-click/setup I do have on that USB drive, which only shows me viewing rights on Garuda
So, why I do not have automatic rights to format or flash an USB drive on Garuda? That’s totally unusual to me. Which steps I have to do, to get the rights to flash or format any of my USB sticks?
