Change from fedora 30 workstation to Ubuntu


How do I download Ubuntu onto a liveusb from my Fedora 30 operating system? I would rather have Ubuntu because there is much more support and documentation. Please help

Welcome to the forums, jcrowley17!

In my experience, the Fedora Media Writer works fine to create Ubuntu liveusb's.

First, download the .iso of the Ubuntu installer.

Second, follow the instructions in the following article (link below). Skip the step called "Creating a Fedora USB." When you get to the step called "Already have an ISO downloaded?" this is where you click Custom Image and choose the Ubuntu .iso that you downloaded in step 1.

Never had a problem with dd - on any distro.
