Way to convert multi-partition USB drive into ISO file?
Is there a way to convert a multi-partition USB drive into an ISO file? I have created a Neverware (Chrome OS) recovery media that required a USB drive. I have successfully done that and now my 8GB USB Stick has 3 partitions, one unallocated with 6.21GB, and the others 1.10GB and 16MB. Is there a way to convert this USB into an ISO?

You can use third-party software like ImgBurn to do something like this: http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=download
Someone has a blog post about this: https://timothy-quinn.com/how-to-convert-a-boot...
Otherwise, the easiest way (although limits visibility of your files in IMG form until you write it to your drive) is to use Win32 Disk Imager: https://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/
When you run Win32 Disk Imager, you hit Read once you select your flash drive, and you can save it anywhere. This is useful if you want to take an image file, and write it on another flash drive, and some others if you wish.
Either way you go, hopefully it'll fulfill your purposes. Good luck.

No, I meant the OTHER way around, ie making a recovery ISO from a USB drive.

Win32 Disk Imager will keep things in IMG, not ISO format, but it should easily save it into an image and is capable of being written to other flash drives.

Sorry if I misunderstood you.
