If you ever deal with making bootable USBs, get Ventoy! Ventoy is a bootable USB system that you install once (via easy and working commands), and then any time you want to boot an image, you just throw the ISO file directly onto the USB FAT partition.
No repartitioning, no setting bootable flags, no dd, no UEFI detection debugging. It works on UEFI and BIOS.
You just boot to Ventoy, which displays a nice (and themeable) list of all your ISOs, and select which one you want to boot.
No more keychain of 5 bootable USBs for different OSes. No more “damn, I wrote over that installer and now I want to use it again”.
I have one USB stick, with my general data transfer partition, bootable Ventoy, and the ISOs for Mac, windows, five different linux flavours, memtest86+, rescatux, clonezilla, etc.
