 #### Automatic installer (recommended)
-There are a variety of options that can be used to create a bootable USB drive on Linux, but I prefer [UNetbootin](https://unetbootin.github.io/). Simply download the medaid ISO from the [medaid website](http://medaid.xyz) amd follow the instructions within the application. 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.

+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!
