Tried running it today with sudo dbus-launch multibootusb and it worked. but when I attempted to install a distro on the usb the program crashed. Got this on the output.

Multibootusb command fails with:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/***/anaconda3/bin/multibootusb", line 174, in <module> if config.debug is True: NameError: name 'config' is not defined</module>

Hi @Angel_Caido. I tried your workaround but now I get this different error message: shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory job-working-directory: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/multibootusb", line 164, in <module> if config.debug is True: NameError: name 'config' is not defined</module>

Do you know of any solution for this?

Lacks a dependency on udisks2.

Bumped to version 8.9.0. Sorry for the delay in updating the Package. Note: If MultiBootUSB doesn't run for you when launched from the menu, try running it using the terminal [type multibootusb-pkexec]. Now, if you see the message "QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to '/tmp/runtime-root'" Then use the following command: sudo dbus-launch multibootusb This workaround did the trick for me.

Dependency 'dbus-x11' has been removed. To answer some of the questions: 1. multibootusb didn't work on my system due to some strange problem with my multicard reader [with and without 'dbus-x11']. 2. I tried forcing my system to use 'dbus-x11' [removing 'dbus']. The system started behaving oddly. So, I reinstalled 'dbus'. 3. I use xfce as my Desktop Environment. sundar_ima said he uses KDE. The bottom line is: sundar_ima is the developer, and I am the packager for multibootusb in the AUR. In my opinion, he knows more about the application than I do. Please. Post and share your experience using this package. I've created a thread in the forums to talk about it. Visit https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1714998#p1714998
