I have a typical problem. I have a RHELinux 5.9 DVD. I want to create a bootable PENDRIVE from this DVD. The problem is my desktop doesnt have DVD drive. I have copied the RHEL5.9 DVD files into a pendrive from a linux PC (it wont support in creating a bootable pendrive).

How can I create a bootable PENDRIVE from the files which I have copied from the DVD?

Please guide.

Thank you

  • Please refer https://askubuntu.com/help/on-topic, Ubuntu and official flavors of Ubuntu (https://ubuntu.com/download/flavours) are on-topic on this site. The on-topic link provides alternate SE sites for non-Ubuntu OSes. – guiverc Jan 23 '21 at 21:23
  • I can provide multiple links that allow you to write ISO files to DVD, thumb-drives etc from windows, osx & Ubuntu (GNU/Linux), however whilst they are tested with every Ubuntu and flavor of Ubuntu (codlord provided 2 of 8+); there are many types of ISO file and may not apply for your RHEL system (you're off-topic; and best getting advice from Red Hat themselves) – guiverc Jan 23 '21 at 21:25

    Does this answer your question? How to make a bootable ISO image from a bootable DVD? and USB drive doesn't auto mount – karel Jan 24 '21 at 09:05
  • Not many installers will do Red Hat, Ventoy lists it as working: https://www.ventoy.net/en/distrowatch.html - Ventoy will work in either Ubuntu or Windows. – C.S.Cameron Jan 25 '21 at 04:09
  • The solution to this question involves Ventoy, an Ubuntu Third Party App. That makes it on-topic for Ask Ubuntu. – C.S.Cameron Jan 25 '21 at 04:16

I only know how to do it from an .iso image of a CD/DVD:

Instructions for creating bootable USB on Ubuntu.

And if you have not already got a .iso image of the DVD then:
