In general you'll have to boot the kernels directly as shown above. boot=live union=overlay config components toram=.squashfs findiso=. vmlinuz boot=casper file=./ed iso-scan/filename=. I just love the tool for what it is.Īssuming you loopback mount the ISO, I think these are the major args. I am in no way personally involved with Ventoy, nor do I have a stake in it. It's one of the very few tools I endorse without any hesitation or reservation. Ventoy is great!!! I'd recommend everyone to at least have a look at it. Until I discovered Ventoy, about a year or two ago, I would always be hesitant to recommend running Linux from USB, unless I knew the exact setup (or it involved someone with a decent technical skills). The situation certainly got better/easier with the years, but it can still be a gamble if an odd Linux distro will actually boot successfully from USB or not. I honestly don't care to remember all the odd issues/failures I've encountered during those 17 years. Even if it does not support absolutely everything (last time I checked), it is by far the most hassle free and sure-fire solution.įor context, I have professionally deployed Linux on USB, ever since around 2004. sh script mentioned here, a GTK/ qt, and a webUI, are also included.Ventoy is indeed one of the best (if not THE best) tool for this.

You can afterwards upgrade the drive for future versions by following a similar procedure. After verifying the sha256sum and unpacking, you can display the included CLI's help page by running the shell script without any arguments: If you just want to create a multi-boot drive, you can simply download the pre-built executable at the GitHub releases page. To add images from which you can boot, mount the first partition and copy the images over. Ventoy creates two partitions on the drive: one to store the bootable images and another for the Ventoy binaries. The same utilities can be used for upgrading the Ventoy installation on the drive.
/opt/ventoy/Ventoy2Disk.sh, which is a shell script to be run from the command line.There are three utilities for setting up the media: Warning: The drive used will be erased and all its existing data will be lost after setup.
