Problem with burning ISO to USB
by puskas from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5R1PX)
I have an USB I want to burn an ISO to. This is the info:
/dev/disk2 (external, physical):
#: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
0: GUID_partition_scheme *15.4 GB disk2
1: EFI EFI 209.7 MB disk2s1
2: Microsoft Basic Data Linux 15.2 GB disk2s2
I use command:
sudo dd bs=4m if=/Users/username/Downloads/linuxmint-20.2-cinnamon-64bit.iso of=/dev/rdisk2
Then it says:
dd: /dev/rdisk2: Resource busy
I was adviced to unmount the USB but then when running the command again it want me to reject the USB. But I ignore and have to erase the USB with disk utility. It doesn't work with Scheme: Apple partition map, so I use GUID partition map and I tried both ExFAT, MS-DOS(FAT) and Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Everyone restores the USB but always puts me in the same loop again and again.
Is there any other solution to Resource busy than unmount? Or why doesn't my USB like: diskutil unmountDisk
