Utility for writing raw disk images & hybrid isos to USB keys
In order to compile, run
HAL
% qmake DEFINES=USEHAL imagewriter.pro
udisks1
% qmake DEFINES=USEUDISKS imagewriter.pro
udisks2
% qmake DEFINES=USEUDISKS2 imagewriter.pro
Failing to specify the define will likely not work out.
Then run
% make
The imagewriter also has the capability to be used in "kiosks" that may have external harddrives. To run in kiosk mode, which both ignores large hard drives and marks unknown USB sticks as "SUSE Studio", run imagewriter with the -k option.
in order to start the imagewriter with sudo, do the following:
% xhost +SI:localuser:root
to allow root access to the current screen and then start the program with:
% sudo DISPLAY=:0 imagewriter
