Linux detected /dev/sde
as the USB stick, in your case it will most likely take a different name.
Work as root account and make sure to replace /dev/sde with your USB flash drive!
Use lsblk
and dmesg | tail -50
commands to locate your USB flash drive.
wipefs -a /dev/sde
parted /dev/sde
(parted) mklabel gpt
(parted) mkpart BOOT fat32 0% 1GiB
(parted) mkpart INSTALL ntfs 1GiB 10GiB
(parted) quit
In my case I've used 100% instead of 10GiB when created the "INSTALL" ntfs partition - mkpart INSTALL ntfs 1GiB 100%. But you can use anything that should be larger than 6 GiB to fit the data from Windows ISO image.

I mounted it to /mnt/iso directory:
mkdir /mnt/iso
mount /home/<your user>/Downloads/Win11_English_x64v1.iso /mnt/iso/
mkfs.vfat -n BOOT /dev/sde1
mkdir /mnt/vfat
mount /dev/sde1 /mnt/vfat/
rsync -r --progress --exclude sources --delete-before /mnt/iso/ /mnt/vfat/
mkdir /mnt/vfat/sources
cp /mnt/iso/sources/boot.wim /mnt/vfat/sources/
mkfs.ntfs --quick -L INSTALL /dev/sde2
mkdir /mnt/ntfs
mount /dev/sde2 /mnt/ntfs
rsync -r --progress --delete-before /mnt/iso/ /mnt/ntfs/
umount /mnt/ntfs
umount /mnt/vfat
umount /mnt/iso
sync
udisksctl power-off -b /dev/sde
Done Now you are ready to boot off of your USB flash drive to install Windows 11.
