==Overview== <!--T:53-->
As outlined in the '''[[Special:MyLanguage/Download Manjaro| Download Manjaro page]]''', an ISO is not simply a 'drag and drop' or 'copy and paste' duplication of Manjaro's installation files. It is in fact a copy of the raw computer code that makes up the files themselves. This is why it is necessary to use a '''software burning application''' to 'burn' an ISO file, that is, convert its raw code into the files onto a physical medium such as a DVD or USB flashdrive / datastick in order to use it. Once burned / converted, the files on that medium can then be used to run Manjaro directly without having to install it to your system (referred to as ''Live-CD or Live-USB'' mode), and/or install Manjaro on your system. Again however, it will not be necessary to to burn an ISO if you intend on running Manjaro in a virtual machine environment using Oracle's Virtualbox. This is because Virtualbox is able to read ISO files directly as ''virtual disks''.

Several different software burning applications - if not already installed - should be available for installation from your distribution's Software Center / Software Manager / Package Manager / repositories. Popular burners include ''XFBurn'', ''K3b'', and ''Brasero''. Which one you may choose is entirely down to personal choiceHowever, a guide to burning your downloaded Manjaro ISO using Brasero has been provided below:
[[File:BigManjaroIcon.png|left|90px]]
[[file:Brasero.png|thumb|left|375px]]
 
Come indicato nella '''[[Scaricare_Manjaro| pagina per il download di Manjaro]]''', una ISO non è come fare 'copia e incolla' di tutti i file di installazione di Manjaro. Si tratta invece di una copia del codice che compone i files stessi. Per questo motivo è necessario utilizzare un '''software di masterizzazione''' per 'masterizzare' un file ISO, e quindi scriverlo su di un supporto fisico come un DVD o una chiavetta USB /DataStick per poi utilizzarlo. Dopo la masterizzazione/scrittura, il supporto potrà essere utilizzato per avviare Manjaro direttamente e senza il bisogno di installarlo sul vostro hard-disk (detta anche 'modalità' “LiveCD oppure Live-USB”), e/o installare Manjaro sul PC. Se si intende fa girare Manjaro in una macchina virtuale come Virtualbox di Oracle, non sarà necessario masterizzare una ISO, poiché VirtualBox è in grado di leggere i file ISO direttamente come ''dischi virtuali''.
 
{{note | Manjaro non potrà avere tutte le funzionalità quando verrà eseguito in modalità Live-CD. Ad esempio, non sarà in grado di salvare le modifiche al sistema, né di installare aggiornamenti o nuove applicazioni.}}
 
 
= Masterizzazione di CD / DVD in Linux =
{{tip|Si raccomanda vivamente di selezionare la velocità più bassa disponibile quando si masterizza su disco, per ridurre al minimo la possibilità di errori durante il processo di masterizzazione.}}
 
 
Esistono  molte applicazioni per la masterizzazione, e se non sono già installati sono disponibili per l’installazione da Software Center/Software Manager/Gestione pacchetti/repository della vostra distribuzione. Software famosi per la masterizzazione sono ''Xfburn'', ''K3b'', e ''Brasero''. Quale scegliere è una scelta del tutto personale. Una guida per la masterizzazione della ISO di Manjaro usando Brasero viene fornita di seguito:
 
'''1.''' Inserire un CD/DVD vuoto (utilizzare un DVD in caso di masterizzazione di una ISO diversa dalla NET Edition)
 
'''2.''' Avviare il software Brasero
 
'''3.'''  Fare clic sul pulsante '''Masterizza Immagine – Masterizza una immagine CD/DVD esistente sul disco''' per aprire la finestra ''Setup Masterizzazione Immagine''.
 
'''4.''' Clicca sul pulsante '''Seleziona un immagine disco da scrivere''' per aprire il file manager. Individuare e fare doppio clic sul file ISO scaricato per caricarlo. Automaticamente si tornerà alla finestra ''Setup Masterizzazione Immagine''; da notare che il file ISO è ora elencato come immagine del disco da scrivere.
 
'''5.''' Sotto la voce '''Selezionare un disco da scrivere''' il CD / DVD precedentemente inserito deve già essere automaticamente proposto. In caso contrario, fare clic sul pulsante per selezionarlo manualmente.
 
'''6.''' Fare clic sul pulsante '''proprietà''' per aprire la ''finestra delle proprietà'', e quindi fare clic sul pulsante sotto la voce '''velocità di masterizzazione'''. Anche in questo caso, si raccomanda vivamente di scegliere la velocità più bassa disponibile. Una volta selezionato, fare clic sul pulsante '''Chiudi'''.
 
'''7.''' Fare clic sul pulsante '''Masterizza''' per avviare il processo di masterizzazione. Se necessario, seguire le istruzioni fornite a schermo.
 
= Masterizzazione di un CD / DVD in Windows =
 
Per Windows sono disponibili molte applicazioni free in grado di masterizzare. Gli esempi più famosi sono:


* '''[Http://www.imgburn.com/ ImgBurn]''' ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XihCQgmeGV4 Video tutorial su YouTube])

Overview

As outlined in the Download Manjaro page, an ISO is not simply a 'drag and drop' or 'copy and paste' duplication of Manjaro's installation files. It is in fact a copy of the raw computer code that makes up the files themselves. This is why it is necessary to use a software burning application to 'burn' an ISO file, that is, convert its raw code into the files onto a physical medium such as a DVD or USB flashdrive / datastick in order to use it. Once burned / converted, the files on that medium can then be used to run Manjaro directly without having to install it to your system (referred to as Live-CD or Live-USB mode), and/or install Manjaro on your system. Again however, it will not be necessary to to burn an ISO if you intend on running Manjaro in a virtual machine environment using Oracle's Virtualbox. This is because Virtualbox is able to read ISO files directly as virtual disks.

note
Manjaro will not have full functionality when run in Live-CD mode. For example, you will not be able to save any changes to the system, or install updates or new applications.

Burning to CD/DVD in Linux

tip
It is strongly recommended to select the slowest speed available when burning to disc in order minimise the possibility of corruption during the burning process.

Several different software burning applications - if not already installed - should be available for installation from your distribution's Software Center / Software Manager / Package Manager / repositories. Popular burners include XFBurn, K3b, and Brasero. Which one you may choose is entirely down to personal choice. However, a guide to burning your downloaded Manjaro ISO using Brasero has been provided below:

Brasero.png

1. Insert a Blank CD/DVD (use a DVD if burning an ISO for anything other than the NET Edition)

2. Start the Brasero software burner

3. Click the Burn Image - Burn an existing CD/DVD image to disc button to open the Image Burning Setup window.

4. Click the button beneath the title Select a disc image to write to open up your file manager. Locate and double-click the downloaded ISO file to load it. Upon automatically returning to the Image Burning Setup window, note that the ISO file is now listed as the disc image to write.

5. Underneath the title Select a disc to write to the blank CD/DVD inserted should already have been automatically listed. Otherwise, click the button to select it manually.

6. Click the properties button to open the properties window, and then click the button beneath the title Burning Speed. Again, it is strongly recommended to select the slowest speed available. Once selected, click the Close button.

7. Click the Burn button to start the burning process. If necessary, follow any on-screen instructions provided.

8. In case that Brasero complains about the iso-image not being recognized as iso: switch to XFBurn. This will burn without complaints.

Burning to a CD/DVD in Windows

In Windows 7 and later, support for burning an ISO to DVD is built-in. Simply right click on the on .iso file and select "Burn disk image". This will bring up a series of dialogues to walk you through the process.

For Windows Vista or older versions of Windows you will need to download 3rd party software. Several free software burner applications are available for Windows. One such tool is DeepBurner. The portable version can be downloaded from here.

Writing to a USB Stick in Linux

This section describes how to write a Linux ISO file to USB.

Windows ISO files are notoriously difficult and requires special attention.

Using the Terminal

To burn the iso on an usb stick, enter the following command in a terminal :

user $ sudo dd bs=4M if=/path/to/manjaro.iso of=/dev/sd[drive letter] status=progress oflag=sync COPY TO CLIPBOARD


Where [drive letter] is the letter of your removable device. Please note that it is the device (e.g. /dev/sdb), and not the partition number (e.g. /dev/sdb1).

To find which drive letter it might be write:

user $ sudo fdisk -l COPY TO CLIPBOARD



Warning
Not all ISO are isohybrid ! However you can create isohybrid ISO. If you use very old hardware and rare, may not support isohybrid. Isohybrid created for UEFI should work with "Legacy mode", without support UEFI not will work on UEFI. Before use USB stick check Bios/UEFI settings, USB should start first. If isohybrid not working for you with uefi, try create isohybrid for own use without this option.


How you can check ISO

user $ fdisk -l COPY TO CLIPBOARD


Example:
user $ fdisk -l manjaro-mate-15.12-x86_64.iso

Disk manjaro-mate-15.12-x86_64.iso: 7,5 GiB, 8006074368 bytes, 15636864 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: dos

Disk identifier: 0x00000000 COPY TO CLIPBOARD


user $ fdisk -l manjaro-xfce-16.08-x86_64.iso

Disk manjaro-xfce-16.08-x86_64.iso: 1,5 GiB, 1561657344 bytes, 3050112 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0x06c2dccb . Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type manjaro-xfce-16.08-x86_64.iso1 * 0 3050111 3050112 1,5G 0 Empty

manjaro-xfce-16.08-x86_64.iso2 224 63711 63488 31M ef EFI (FAT-12/16/32) COPY TO CLIPBOARD


Isohybrid have 2 partitions, you can check also with gparted after burn the iso on an usb stick.

How create isohybrid

user $ isohybrid -v /path/to/name.iso COPY TO CLIPBOARD


or for UEFI
user $ isohybrid --uefi -v output.iso COPY TO CLIPBOARD


More in http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php?title=Isohybrid

Using a Burning Application

ImageWriter

ImageWriter should be available for installation from your distribution's Software Center / Software Manager / Package Manager / repositories. Once Imagewriter has been downloaded and installed, ensure that your USB stick is plugged in before starting it.

A brief guide to writing the Manjaro .ISO image has been provided:

1. Click on the centre icon

2. Navigate to where the ISO image has been saved and select it

3. Ensure that your USB device has been selected from the drop-down menu

4. Click on the Write button

5. After the Write process has finished, reboot your system

Writing to a USB Stick in Windows

Using Rufus

Rufus Rufus is a utility that helps format and create bootable USB flash drives, such as USB keys/pendrives, memory sticks, etc.

When you use Rufus to write a Manjaro Live ISO to USB you must select DD mode when prompted to use standard or DD mode.

See its website for more details: [1]

Writing to a USB Stick on a Macintosh

As a Unix variant, macOS uses a similar approach to Linux. All commands below should be run in the Terminal application. Commands using sudo may prompt for your password; this is expected.

After you've inserted your USB drive, identify it using diskutil:

user $ diskutil list COPY TO CLIPBOARD


  /dev/disk0 (internal, physical):
     #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER
     0:      GUID_partition_scheme                        *1.0 TB     disk0
     1:                        EFI EFI                     209.7 MB   disk0s1
     2:                 Apple_APFS Container disk1         1000.0 GB  disk0s2
  /dev/disk3 (external, physical):
     #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER
     0:     FDisk_partition_scheme                        *7.8 GB     disk3
     1:               Windows_NTFS MYUSBDRIVE              7.8 GB     disk3s1

Note the identifier disk3s1 in this example.

Unmount the drive with the command:

user $ sudo diskutil unmount /dev/disk3s1 COPY TO CLIPBOARD


  Volume MYUSBDRIVE on disk3s1 unmounted

Now you can use dd to write to the raw device:

user $ sudo dd bs=4M if=Desktop/manjaro-i3-21.2.3-220205-linux515.iso of=/dev/disk3 COPY TO CLIPBOARD


  787+1 records in
  787+1 records out
  3303161856 bytes transferred in 2470.782563 secs (1336889 bytes/sec)

The USB drive can now be removed from the computer and used to boot Manjaro.
