For quite some time now the only installs I've done have been various versions of Kubuntu. I've been using Startup Disk Creator. I wanted to create an Arch boot USB stick and am not sure the simplest way to create a boot image on Kubuntu for non Ubuntu distros.

Ventoy is the way to go. Create a Ventoy USB stick then just copy whatever bootable ISOs you want to it. -
startup disk creator should work on any .iso file ... even arch, btw.Comment

Just yesterday found a drawback to Ventoy... It won't boot with secure boot enabled, where an Ubuntu USB is now supposed to. In my case yesterday I just had to turn off secure boot, but I imagine there are circumstances where that can't be done.Originally posted by oshunluvr View PostRegards, John LittleComment

No it will let me use a Kubuntu / Ubuntu iso and even a debian-12 iso, but it won't let me use the arch, windows 10 or Windows 11 isos.Originally posted by skyfishgoo View Post

Ventoy can boot an Arch ISO. See this thread: Ventoy and booting Arch Linux on the archlinux forum.Originally posted by Rich Oliver View PostWindows no longer obstruct my view.
Using Kubuntu Linux since March 23, 2007.

On secure boot: https://www.ventoy.net/en/doc_secure.html
Some GUI USB tools do favor the live iso/hybrid style images like Ubuntu use
And it is even possible in some cases to use a gpt and exfat formatted stick and literally copy the files. non-hybrid ones, I think.
