Hi Marc
When I use version 4.0.6 to make the boot disk on linux  mint 20.3,
 use ./install.sh , 
display this error:

### Writing 'esos-4.0.6_z.img.tar.bz2' to '/dev/sdb'; this may take a while...
0+162031 records in
0+162031 records out
8589934592 bytes (8.6 GB, 8.0 GiB) copied, 322.654 s, 26.6 MB/s

### It appears the image was successfully written to disk (no errors reported)!

### Large installation target detected; adding the 'esos_data' file system...
blockdev: ioctl error on BLKRRPART: Device or resource busy
blockdev: ioctl error on BLKRRPART: Device or resource busy

but 4.0.4 is OK, not display this error.


boot disk: INTEL SSD 545S SERIES 256G
system : linux mint 20.3

There haven't been many changes to this file recently:
https://github.com/quantum/esos/commits/4.x.x/install.sh

Perhaps it's just chance (timing) it is giving that error? You may
want to check if your Linux distro has any type of auto-mount'ing when
it sees new block devices / file systems and disable that.

I was turn off the removable option , but the partition is still auto show on the file manager. so I decompress the img file , use diskgen(disk tools) write the img file to the Intel SSD disk. 

I'm trying this on my computer now.

Is this method possible?

Yeah, that's probably okay... just writing the image out like what 'dd' does.
