newbie questions

[bill .]

Hi all,


I am a long-time Linux user with a little BSD experience. No guru, just a guy who tries to steer away from the megalo corporations. I would like to try Dragonfly but have had some issues in the past. Using Linux, when i try to copy the dragonfly iso to usb using the dd command it doesn't boot for me. Is there a different command in this case, or do i need to use a cd/dvd?


Probably the first of several questions, and please feel free to give me links to the appropriate man pages. The machine i am attempting to install on is an hp 15 r series laptop with uefi. Thanks much.
