Hi there, I’m trying to make my USB bootable with the OpenSUSE 11.4 64 bit KDE iso image. When I open up SUSE Studio Image Writer (by following the Windows instructions here), it doesn’t find the .iso image on my desktop. When I’m selecting the image, it’s looking for a .raw file. Do I have to do some trickery to change the .iso image to a .raw?
If you need clarification, please ask :).

You’ll notice that the file specification is “.” - that overrides
the .raw extension “files of type” selection.
You can also select “All files” if that’s an option, or just rename the
iso file to have a raw extension (iso = raw in this instance, AFAIK).

Thank you! I initially put just a . instead of the .

Just put . in the filename and press enter, it’ll allow you to choose any file.
Alternatively rename the .iso to .raw, it’s all the same really.
Yes and that is standard Windows behavior when a filter is set on the file dialog. Has been forever.
Note sure why someone does not fix the filter to also show iso’s it should not be a hard thing to program. But in any case any windows program that sets a filter in the dialog can be overridden at the file prompt.
