-Etcher version 1.19.21 on MacBook Pro 2021 Sonoma 14.6 attempting to use usb drive for linux mint installation on Mac. linuxmint-21.3-cinnamon-64bit.iso Flash completed successfully but then message saying 'disk you attached was not readable by this computer.' tried two different usb, both same result. can't find a way to initialise disk or solve the problem. new to this... any suggestions?

MacOS probably isn't able to read the Linux filesystems on the USB drive. See also https://github.com/balena-io/etcher/blob/master/docs/USER-DOCUMENTATION.md#flashing-ubuntu-isos
