Appendix 1: Transferring an ISO Image to a
USB Flash Drive
ISO images can be transferred to a USB flash drive using either
Win32DiskImager or another tool such as Rufus, both of which are
documented here.
The advantage of Rufus over Win32DiskImager is that when the USB flash
drive has been written to, the USB flash drive is still able to be read from
and written to under Windows. This allows the user to add any additional
scripts, configuration files etc. to the USB flash drive.
Notice The Dell R230 server can only be booted up by a USB type
3.0 flash drive. When installing software on a Dell R230, please make
sure your flash drive is compliant. The internet can provide tips on how
to recognise a USB 3.0 flash drive (e.g. sometimes it has a blue insert).
If problems arise, please contact Tait Technical Support for CD/DVD
ROM installation instructions.
1.1 Using Rufus
1. To create a USB flash drive with CentOS or SCADA gateway soft-
ware, first download and install the Rufus application.
2. Insert a suitably sized USB flash drive into one of the PC’s USB
ports. (CentOS will require at least an 8GB flash drive, and for the
DMR application 1GB or greater is required.)
