+====== Rufus ======
+From: https://rufus.akeo.ie/
+<code>
+Rufus is a utility that helps format and create bootable USB flash drives, such
+as USB keys/pendrives, memory sticks, etc.
+It can be especially useful for cases where:
+ to create USB installation media from bootable ISOs (Windows, Linux, UEFI, etc.)
+ to work on a system that doesn't have an OS installed
+ to flash a BIOS or other firmware from DOS
+ to run a low-level utility
+For UEFI based systems
+If your computer is UEFI based, these are normally systems that come pre-loaded with Windows 8 or
+later, you will need to prepare the ISO file for such a configuration or you will receive an error
+message during setup. The thumbdrive needs to be formatted as FAT32 and use the GPT partitioning
+scheme. To do this, you need to use Rufus, a small tool you can download for free.
+Select GPT partitioning for UEFI firmware as the Partition scheme
