I have installed mediawriter and will be trying it out.
Thanks.
Another possibility is install Ventoy (
https://www.ventoy.net/) on a big USB key
and then just copy the .iso in the root (as many as there is space) and boot
from there. I have a USB with a couple Fedora a System Rescue and some other
install stuff, when a new Fed comes out I just delete the older and copy the
new, no need to redo the USB. And you can use the USB for your files too, Ventoy
doesn't mind.
