bug#41792: Acknowledgement (dd function – message: "No boot sector on USB device"")

[Ricky Tigg]

The difference of device path is due to the fact that the USB media was
plugged out after the write-operation was achieved on the Linux computer
then plugged into a computer –Asus– whose Windows OS has to be restored,
then plugged back to the same computer but to a *different* USB port. It's
safe to open the present issue-ticket.

*Rufus v4.1.4* – I couldn't use it since The Windows OS installed is
missing some system's files. Will convert it to fit on Fedora at release of
version 33 which will update the uniformly mingw component and thus
mingw64-headers which is old and is the cause of a known issue.

I wrote the disc image as well using those tools then booted the USB device
having the disc image written on.:

*Fedora Media Writer v4.1.4* – Officially does not support Microsoft
Windows disc images. I did not know that before writing.

*Unetbootin v677* – It writes partially the disc image thus the installer
is operational partially. Issue was already reported by someone on Git.

*Woeusb v3.3.1* – Installer is operational on BIOS but not on EFI systems.
Issue was already reported by someone on Git.

*Balena Etcher v1.5.9*8 x64 as AppImage format – The device is not listed
at boot.
