ALT Media Writer
ALT Media Writer is a tool that helps users put ALT images on their portable drives such as flash disks.
It is able to automatically download the required image for them and write them in a dd-like fashion, extracting compressed images if necessary.
This overwrites the drive's partition layout though so it also provides a way to restore a single-partition layout with a FAT32 partition.
Troubleshooting
If you experience any problems with the application, like crashes or errors when writing to your drives, please open an issue here on Github.
MD5 checksum
Most ALT image files have an associated MD5 checksum for integrity purposes. ALT Media Writer verifies this checksum right after the image is downloaded.
