I bought a lap top with Endless OS, but I had problems with my another one. It was dual boot with Windows 7 and Linux Mint 18. I wanted to change the LInux MInt with Fedora, and I made bootable usb using the WIndows 7. I violently removed Linux by deleting the partitions from Windows disk manegment so it put me to grub rescue prompt. There were also problems with Fedora installation. So I decided to make once again bootable USB with new iso Fedora file using this laptop with Endless OS, but I got stuck.This is what I have done:
- step: I formated the USB: using the command df -h, than I sudo umount /dev/sdb1, and sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1. I think this was okay.
- step: I found tutorial on the net for making bootable usb with new fedora iso and it told me to Download And Extract Etcher. I’ve done the following
cd ~/Downloads
Run the ls command to make sure the file exists:
ls
You should see a file with a name similar to the following:
Etcher-1.0.0-beta.17-linux-x64.zip
To extract the files use the unzip command.
unzip Etcher-1.0.0-beta.17-linux-x64.zip
Run the ls command again.
ls
You will now see a file with the following filename:
Etcher-linux-x64.AppImage
To run the program enter the following command:
./Etcher-linux-x64.AppImage
but I have got an error saying:
/tmp/.mount_San92o/usr/bin/etcher-electron: error while loading shared libraries: libgconf-2.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Also I think I found out from this forum that libgconf-2.so.4 cannot be used on Endless OS.
So is there any other way to make my usb bootable with fedora live image from Endless OS?
Thank you.
ps. Sorry If there are some confusion, because of me not writing good, I will be happy to explain again.
