xu-irc22wI'm trying to boot from a usb, but it doesn't show up in my boot order. How do I fix this? I'm assuming it's because Xubuntu unmounts it during shutdown.22:13
xu-irc22wAlso, how do I format a usb?22:26

xu-irc22wFigured it out22:43
xu-irc22wNow, are there any working programs to flash windows to a USB? Popsicle doesn't support it and freshlight winusb doesn't exist anymore.22:46
xu-irc22wTrying winusb from the github22:53

xu-irc22wThat has so many requirements23:02
tomreynthen just stick with xubuntu, better choice anyways ;)23:05
xu-irc22wNot if I want to play games23:06
xu-irc22wHow do I install wimlib? I have tried many times to install tar.gz files but they have never worked. My lack of knowledge is another reason I want to switch to windows23:13
tomreynxu-irc22w: it#s packaged for (x)ubuntu, just    sudo apt update && sudo apt install wimlib   (or use your preferred graphical package manager)23:19
tomreynxu-irc22w: ubuntu and xubuntu share the same base, just the desktop environment / the graphical user interface of xubuntu differs. so if you have general Ubuntu questions you can also ask them in the #ubuntu IRC channel (rather than here, on #xubuntu), where you usually get lower response times and more people watching.23:21
xu-irc22wtomreyn: I tried `sudo apt install wimlib` but was unable to locate that package23:22

ubottuxu-irc22w: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories.23:25
