Many people suggest using dd to create bootable USB,
https://www.archlinux.org/download/ . But cp and mv also writes to USB, e.g.,
cp archlinux-2020.01.01-x86_64.iso /dev/sdb, cat
archlinux-2020.01.01-x86_64.iso > /dev/sdb. Is it safe to use these commands
instead of dd? If it's unsafe, I want to know the reason.
