Partition the USB Flash Drive

sudo su

Determine which USB drive: 

fdisk -l

Blank the USB drive (optional):

Create the Filesystem

mkfs.vfat -F 32 -n UBCD /dev/sdX1

Copy the Files to the USB Flash Drive

cd /home/<username>/Desktop/UBCDextracted/

rsync -avr /home/<username>/Desktop/UBCDextracted/* /media/<username>/UBCD/

./ubcd/tools/linux/ubcd2usb/syslinux --install --directory /boot/syslinux /dev/sdX1
