You can create a Linux live USB by using either a GUI application like Rufus or by leveraging your existing command-line utilities. We will show you how to create a bootable Linux distro from all major operating systems, including Linux, Mac OS, and Windows. For those who failed to create bootable USB with TransMac, take a look at UUByte DMG Editor. I managed to create two bootable USB from macOS Mojave and Catalina DMG file and successfully installed them on respect Mac. First, make sure the dmg file you downloaded is valid.
With a bootable Ubuntu USB stick, you can:
