[xubuntu-users] OT: better bootable thumb drive creator than unetbootin?

[Patrice ARNAL]

I ususally use Easy2boot or Multi system 

http://www.easy2boot.com/ 

http://liveusb.info/dotclear/ (MultiSystem) 

Both are fine. Easy2boot needs contigous files and needs sometimes to be
defragmented with a virtual window machine (JK Defrag) 

Multisystem has its own management interface installable on any Ubuntu
distro, and is going to be my favorite.
