I plan on installing the Windows 10 Tech Preview on a laptop, but the laptop has Ubuntu and I have no access to a Windows PC, so I can't find any way to burn the ISO to a USB, since Rufus won't work in Wine. Is there any Rufus alternative (that works) for Ubuntu 12.04? (I will not take terminal commands or WinUSB, neither of those want to work for me.)
 
I've only had luck using ISOs with DD that were largely Linux based. I tried to create Windows 7 and Windows 8 USB installers on Ubuntu via DD but failed. I assume it's because the Windows ISOs aren't configured in a way to allow for this, but I'm not positive.

To create my USB installers for 7 and 8 I used WinUSB. It's available via PPA. I have no idea if it'll work with Windows 10 as I have not tried it, but it did the job for 7 and 8.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:colingille/freshlight
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install winusb
