Bug ID: 1318103 Summary: LiveUSB Creator as primary downloadable Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Component: install-guide Assignee: cspicer@redhat.com Reporter: bugzilla@colorremedies.com QA Contact: docs-qa@lists.fedoraproject.org CC: pbokoc@redhat.com, zach@oglesby.co
Description of problem: Currently LiveUSB Creator is not mentioned at all in official documentation for any platform. https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/23/html/Installation_Guide/sect-...
First, the two Windows platform recommendations in the documentation are odd because they're neither created nor tested within Fedora.
Second, Live USB Creator is planned to be the primary/most prominent download method for Fedora 24 for Fedora (maybe other Linux distros as well), Windows, and possibly OS X if it arrives in time. So documentation should be updated to reflect this.

--- Comment #1 from Chris Murphy bugzilla@colorremedies.com --- This ask fedora comment suggests the SUSE tool recommended in current Fedora 23 documentation doesn't work. https://ask.fedoraproject.org/en/question/84025/liveusb-creator-appears-to-b...
Anyway I think we're better off changing the documentation for Fedora 23 and 24 to recommend Windows users use Live USB Creator. If there are bugs preventing it from working then of course that should be fixed, but not recommending it isn't going to help it get used or fixed.

--- Comment #2 from Adam Williamson awilliam@redhat.com --- well, there's exactly *one* comment to that effect, versus three comments that LUC didn't work. =)
The 'official' documentation more or less follows https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_and_use_Live_USB , which I more or less maintain. I've been waiting for the dust to settle on LMW before updating it (i.e. we decide exactly what it is we want to recommend, and where LMW for Windows is going to live).
