This script takes a destination USB disk device, a Windows installation DVD, and runs through all the steps to automatically format, partition, and copy the files over.
It has been tested with:
-
Windows 7 Ultimate Retail DVD
-
Windows 10 Dell OEM DVD
It should work with any discs Windows 7 and beyond, but your mileage may vary; pull requests welcome.

Tip

This script requires root priviledges to write to, and mount disks. |

Warning
|
This script can, will, and does wipe the disk specified. There are pre-flight checks and notices, but please verify the destination disk before proceeding. |
This script requires ms-sys to be installed on the machine. By default, it checks /usr/local/bin/ms-sys, and failing that, uses command to try and find it.
You can download and build ms-sys at: http://ms-sys.sourceforge.net/
This script also uses parted for disk partitioning.
