All users need to do it select the ISO file or supported distribution, their target drive and reboot once done. UNetbootin is easy to use and bootable drives can be created quickly by following just a few simple steps. Similarly, users can supply their own ISO file. If you’d like to create a drive installer without having to burn a CD, UNetbootin helps users create bootable Live USB drives for Linux distributions, including Ubuntu, that are supported right out of the box. Its built-in support means you can automatically download distributions such as Ubuntu, Debian, Linux Mint, Zenwalk, Fedora and many more. By either downloading an ISO file for you or by using an existing one you already have, it can load distributions. UNetbootin is a piece of software developed for Windows, Mac and Linux operating systems that allows users to create a bootable USB drive for Ubuntu without the need to burn a CD.
