I'm using the dd command to create a bootable usb from iso file:
sudo dd if=~/Desktop/ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdx bs=1M
After pressing enter it momentarily exits and gives me:
915+0 records in 915+0 records out 959447040 bytes (959 MB) copied,
0.539375 s, 1.8 GB/s
So it's like running in background because I can see that the flash drive is working. Eventually it will stop copying and I can remove the drive successfully but the question is why doesn't dd command wait for copying to finish. Why does it run in background. And how can I make it wait?
