If you want to burn an ISO image to a USB drive in Linux with graphical program, Etcher is the most user friendly way to do that.

This image writer works in Linux, Windows, and Mac. It has simple interface and works reliably.

In case you get this error: /tmp/.mount/usr/bin/etcher-electron: error while loading libraries: libgconf-2.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.

Install the library libgconf-2-4 by running this command in your terminal:
sudo apt install libgconf-2-4

After that Etcher will work as supposed. You can launch it from the terminal, or by double clicking on its file.
