UNetbootin Troubles


If you are having trouble running the UNetbootin Linux binary, you can try installing it using apt-get. This will automatically download and install any required dependencies.

1. Add the following lines to "/etc/apt/sources.list".
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/gezakovacs/ppa/ubuntu [name] main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/gezakovacs/ppa/ubuntu [name] main
Where "[name]" is the name of your Ubuntu version:
VersionName
10.04lucid
9.04jaunty
9.10karmic
8.10intrepid
8.04hardy

2. Add the GPG key.
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 72D340A3
3. Get the list of packages from the newly added source.
sudo apt-get update
4. Install UNetbootin. It will appear in the "System Tools" menu.
sudo apt-get install unetbootin
