There are a variety of options that can be used to create a bootable USB drive on Linux, but I prefer UNetbootin. Simply download the medaid ISO from the medaid website amd follow the instructions within the application.
NOTE: You should format the USB as FAT32. If the USB doesn't boot, you may need to add the "boot" flag in GParted and burn the ISO again.
Do not plug in your USB yet
Open up your terminal and type this:
lsblk
Take note of which drives are present and insert your USB. Retype:
lsblk
A new disk should appear. This is your USB, and will have the name "sd" followed by a letter. Usually it will be "sdb", but I will use "sdX" from now on.
Next we will unmount the drive:
sudo umount /dev/sdb
And now to burn the ISO to the USB:
sudo dd bs=4M if=/path/to/medaid.iso of=/dev/sdX
That should be it!
