Hello everybody:
My 'problem' is that when using unetbooting I record an ISO linux distro, but after trying it, when I wanna record another one I have the space occupied by the previous distribution.
How can I delete all the docs (trash included) or format the USB from Linux
Thanks in advance

Hi:
I don't like it at all.- When I delete a file from my USB it goes to a folder called 'Trash' and I cant delete it, so the files are there using space. The only way to eliminate it is cutting it and pasting in other disk. I don't know how to solve this... gut I need an option like windows....empty recicle bin..
THANKS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR

Log in Zorin OS 6.4....Zorin OS 7 will do the same exact thing relative to formatting a USB drive.
Open Zorin Menu > Computer > Right Click on the Flash Drive and Format to FAT.
Done Deal > everything is erased/deleted.
OR
You can use Disk Utility = Zorin Menu > System Tools > Preferences > Disk Utility !!!!
And do things in more detail if needed.
Zorin Lite is a horse of a different color.
You'd have to ask one of the others about that one.
