The following commands need to be run in terminal mode, be sure to ‘fix’ the [distro-name]

Start by running the following command on your mounted USB device (to clean it up nicely)

• sudo apt autoremove –purge  (or similar command for your distro)

1. dd if= MX-18.1_x64.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=16M && sync
2. dd if=bl-Helium-4-amd64.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=4M && sync
