So the "mx-live-usb-maker" command is the GUI version without the option.

We don't have two versions, mx-live-usb-maker is the GUI-wrapper around
BitJam's magic live-usb-maker command line version:
You can just run it this way, go in the folder of the ISO:
E.g. using MX-19.2_ahs_x64.iso
and run :
sudo live-usb-maker --data-first -f ./MX-19.2_ahs_x64.iso

Code: Select all

sudo live-usb-maker --data-first -f ./MX-19.2_ahs_x64.iso

Note: Try to avoid root-terminal, b/c you can to easily destroy your system.
Just use sudo to run terminal command as root, or use gksu (= mx-pkexec)
to run GUI apps as root.

OK, will try that next time fehlix.
This time I manually created the missing USB-DATA partition on the USB and it worked out. One note of cation tho:
If one renames the VOLUME label of the manually created fat32 partition (different label) then all of your files previously on it are gone. EMPTY partition. Why?

Code: Select all

-n VOLUME-NAME
           Sets the volume name (label) of the filesystem.  The volume name can be up to 11 characters long.  The default is no label.

FWIW, we pushed a fixed mx-live-usb-maker earlier this week.
