Insert your USB drive

On the LiLi window, click on ISO/IMG and select your iso image.


Step 6:
Theres two options that you might be interested in,
a) Format the key in FAT32 (this will erase your data!!)
b) Hide created files on key

Option(a) removes everything from your usb drive, and Option(b) hides linux system files on the drive, so you won't see linux installation files in it. You hide files when you plan on keeping other important files on your usb drive along with a Linux installer.


Step 7:
Click on the lighting button and wait.

Enjoy.

Step 1: Go to the terminal.


Step 2: Type '   /dev/sd*   ' to see the device identifier of your usb drive. it should be something like /dev/sdb /dev/sdc. In my case it's '   /dev/sdb   '
