Zorin on a thumbdrive


I'm trying to create a thumb drive to install Zorin 7 on my laptop. I tried using unetbootin, but they don't offer it on the drop-down, and can't find a way to 'force' the issue.
Have found some ways to burn a CD or DVD, but not a flash drive. Any idea of a tutorial on this?

Option 2 lets you specify a disk image.

Zorin is Ubuntu based so it should not be a problem. You can select the iso image of Zorin if you download it before running unetbootin. The unetbootin page below shows the main window when you open it. You just click the tab with three dots on it to the far right near the bottom and navigate to your Downloads directory or wherever the Zorin iso is and follow the prompts.

Thank you, I now have the unetbootin working. Now I need to figure which download server I need to use, ibiblio, or Linux Freedom.

I use the Netherlands for the download server for most distros. It seems to be faster than the options then have in the US.
