Desktop USB Stick Formatter & ISO Writer

[antony]

Hi, although I've only just joined the forum : ) please could I put in a request for a simple desktop app(s) to 1 - format a usb stick, and 2 - write an ISO image to a stick.

Linux Mint provides examples as to how this is done in two very good & simple distinct apps, and available generally in the wider linux ecosphere as minstick (Manjaro/arch).

Suprised it/they have not found there way in to FreeBSD/GhostBSD packages yet as they are so very useful. I know I could use dd on GhostBSD (and probably will!) but that's beside the point - anyone who has tried the GUI way of doing this would chose it because of simplicity & ease of use - very much the GhostBSD way of doing things surely!

The

Code: Select all

dd

command does what Mint's ISO writer does and while doing so it destroys all data on the USB - which is what formatting it does anyway. Like Mint, MX also has separate USB-formatter and iso-writing tools. As a GUI boy myself I'd love to see those cool tools in my GhostBSD OS though.
