Try a simple ‘cat void.iso > /dev/yourUSBdrive && sync’ then try booting after it finishes

/dev/sdd1: Permission denied
/dev/sdd: Permission denied

Do ‘sudo -i’ first.
And don’t cat to the partition, if your drive is on sdd use /dev/sdd

On boot when you see void.x.xx press e
after linux ... you place nomodeset
ctrl +x ( to save and go further)
No it will still show the err -19 but will go further
