Is it no-longer possible to use dd to write an install ISO to a flashdrive, or is there something wrong with the ISO (which passes the checksum tests)? If I do this command: [root@rocky fedora42]# dd if=Fedora-Server-dvd-x86_64-42-1.1.iso of=/dev/sdb status=progress 2923241984 bytes (2.9 GB) copied, 1204.794829 s, 2.4 MB/s 5714688+0 records in 5714688+0 records out 2925920256 bytes (2.9 GB) copied, 1212.03 s, 2.4 MB/s Marvel at the blistering write speed!! But ignore that for this problem. I see this in the system log after it finishes: Jun 23 11:14:23 rocky kernel: GPT:Primary header thinks Alt. header is not at the end of the disk.
