[12:33] thanks for your help but I can't really figure this out. if there was a program to format pendrives, i'd do it but terminal is black magic to me, it showed some errors etc [12:41] There are plenty you can use from the gui. Gnome Disks, KDE partitioner, Ubuntu startup disk creator, gparted, etcher [12:48] panparadox: do you just need to format it or also burn an iso into the pendrive? [12:57] panparadox[m]: unetbootin is your go-to if you need to slap a bootable os on a pendrive [12:58] panparadox[m]: gparted is about as easy and self-explanatory partition manager as you can get. You really shouldn't have a problem finding one that works for you :)
