Macs, on the other hand, have the ability to run Windows and countless Linux distributions alongside OS X or in place of it. The answer to that is quite simply "because you can." Apple hardware is similar to its PC counterparts in many ways except one: PCs can't natively run OS X without any software hacks involved.
Why would you install any OS-besides OS X-on an Apple computer? But before diving into that, I have a question of my own. Not to mention, Etcher is also open-source and completely free just like Rufus.After last week's article, " Pro tip: How to create a bootable USB drive to install Windows on OS X," I received feedback asking why anyone would install Windows on a Mac? This week's entry deals with creating UFDs that allow you to install many other operating systems with the help of a utility called Rufus. This will help you save time from writing images on corrupt USB devices. Having said that, the best part about Etcher is that it has something called Image Validation which verifies the system image and removable drive before flashing. Apart from that, Etcher is also quite fast in flashing images, but it’s slightly behind Rufus. You select a system image, the USB stick and click on Flash. It’s also quite simple to use and the interface is very straightforward. In contrast, Etcher is a full-fledged program which is available on all major platforms including macOS and supports all kinds of system images like ISO, DMG, IMG, etc. While Rufus is the gold standard for creating bootable USB drives, it’s limited to Windows operating system only. Now with that said, let’s begin the list without further ado. Similarly, you can create a Windows bootable drive from Linux machine as well. In addition, we have selected the apps in such a way that you can create macOS bootable media from a Windows device and vice versa. Apart from that, we have mentioned apps for all major operating systems including Windows, Linux, Ubuntu, and macOS. In this section, we have included 10 apps like Rufus which perform pretty fast and without bogging down the system.
