4. You will be prompted to enter your oflag (default: direct)
5. You will be asked if you are absolutely sure that you want to continue (flashing will wipe all data)

- Alternative: using `cflash [device] [iso-path] [block-size] [oflag]` will skip the first question and instantly ask you, if you're absolutely sure you want to continue.
- Once confirmed, the flash will start and a small progress bar will appear showing the flashing progress.
- After completion, the program will detect the OS from the iso and wish you a great time with your new OS. (Example: "Done! Have fun with your new Linux installation!)
- **IMPORTANT**: Since dd needs sudo rights, ensure you have root priviliges.
