Title: How to run UNetbootin
Post by: crab on June 02, 2014, 07:36:28 AM

I have installed UNetbootin from the Synaptic Package Manager and everything seems to be alright. I even updated all software prior to installing the said program. But when i try to run the program from either the main menu or a terminal all i get is a window called: UNetbootin Uninstaller which states UNetbootin is currently installed. Remove the existing version?

All i want to do is run the program in order to put a Linux distro on my USB Drive!

Right click on it, 'Make file executable'. Then just double click on it to run it. Further instructions about it's use can be found here - http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/#install
