USB Flash Drive
A 32 GB USB 3.0 flash drive is recommended to follow along with this project. This drive will be used as the installation media. The SanDisk 32GB USB drive is recommended as it supports both USB type A and C connectors.
I initially recommend the Gorilla USB 3.0 thumb drives, however, I can no longer recommend this drive for two reasons:
- The newer revisions are no longer recognized by Linux.
- I have experienced 2 drive failures out of my last 6 orders.
I will be contacting Gorilla Drive soon for a statement.
USB Flash Software
To write the EmComm Tools Community ISO image to a USB drive you will need to install flash software on your computer. balenaEtcher is recommended as it is freely available for Windows, Linux and macOS.
