# Figuring out what is the USB stick
Start by mounting the stick which should be automatic in GUI.
```
mount|grep /dev/sd
```
should tell what is the /dev/USBSTICK
## Creating bootable USB stick
```
isohybrid image.iso
dd if=image of=/dev/USBSTICK bs=1024
```
## Creating .iso from CD/DVD
First unmount the CD/DVD and then
```
dd if=/dev/DRIVE of=image.iso
```
DRIVE can be /dev/dvd /dev/cdrom or /dev/scd0 depending on the CD/DVD.
## Backing up scratched CD/DVD
```
dd if=/dev/DRIVE (see above) of=IMAGE.iso conv=noerror
```
maybe ddrescue should be used instead of dd.
