From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Try another usb, different brand. It might not be the burning app, it could be the usb itself. Also, try different ports of usb. Finally, have an ethernet usb adapter, if your laptop doesn't have an ethernet port, because you will need that to install the wifi driver, which is not included by default on linux, because it's not a Free driver.
This explains so much! It took me ages to get the Broadcom working correctly and even now I’m not sure how I got it to work (it sometimes goes away and I have to reboot to bring it back).
I'll give this a shot, thank you
worked, thanks lol
