The blog also said that the Linux ISO has its own MBR, so DD burning Linux ISO when there is no problem, the MBR will be burned together into the U disk. However, the Windows ISO file does not have MBR, so when the Linux system does the Windows startup disk, the first thing you need to do is write the MBR information to the U disk. After that, you copy the ISO contents of Windows to the U disk. This allows the BIOS to correctly identify the MBR and then install the Windows system.
