How to escape from Bodhi Linux

Question

I recently switched to Bodhi Linux, and I want to switch back to Ubuntu. UNebootin doesn't work with Bodhi, and there aren't any other programs that let me create a live usb. Bodhi is the only os I have on my computer. Is there any way to switch back, or am I trapped forever?

Answer 1

• First download a Ubuntu image (14.04 i386 or your preferred version/architecture)
• Then open the Bodhi terminal and type sudo fdisk -l
• From this output find your pendrive (by size) and keep in mind its location (i.e. /dev/sdb)
• Then run this command: sudo dd if="/PATH/TO/MY/DISK/IMAGE.ISO" of="/dev/sdX" bs=8M
• It will not display nothing until finishes.

• When finished, restart computer and boot

• Warnings:

  • NEVER put /dev/sda on the dd output, it will overwrite your computer's HDD.
  • Always put the device without the partition number (i.e. /dev/sdb and not /dev/sdb1)
