La verdadera alternativa para Rufus en Linux... ¡¿No es Balena-Etcher?!
Sí, lo acabas de leer bien, lo he dicho y escrito aquí y ahora, Balena-etcher no es la verdadera alternativa a Rufus en sistemas Linux... En lo que a ISOs de Windows se trata . Dejame explicarte. Hace un par de horas un colega que se dedica ocasionalmente a reparar computadores de mesa y laptops me dijo "Necesito una version del win10 que sea ligera, a la de ya, mándame un pendrive" y yo que soy…
Balena-etcher is not the true alternative to Rufus in Linux systems, especially when dealing with Windows ISOs. According to a colleague who repairs desktop and laptop computers occasionally, he needed a lighter version of Windows 10 on a USB drive. He found Balena-etcher, a popular option for flashing ISOs, but it proved unreliable for Windows ISOs.
The error message "h.requestmetadata is not a function" appeared when attempting to use Balena-etcher. Alternative Rufus was not available in Linux, so WoeUSB was recommended as the true alternative. WoeUSB provides a simple, fast, and intuitive GUI and terminal-based options. To create a bootable Windows USB drive using WoeUSB, users need to prepare the USB drive, locate the device with lsblk, and then execute the command with sudo privileges.
The process may require an internet connection, so patience is essential. Once the USB drive is ready, it can be used to install Windows on the desired system.
