1.2.2 (2023-10-08)
It is recommended that you flash this ISO with the Fedora Media Writer. Applications like Ventoy are known to have issues.
If you have previously used the DeckMTP plugin in Decky Loader on SteamOS, be sure to disable Dual-Role USB in the Steam Deck BIOS, otherwise you will not be able to boot to USB storage. It can be re-enabled after installing Bazzite.
