If you play around with multiboot usb's, you owe it to yourself to at least check it out. I've found Ventoy to be crazy simple and very effective, and there IS a linux installer. The only caveat is that none of your folders or ISO filenames can contain any spaces, dots (other than the one immediately before "iso" ie: somefile.iso), or special characters.strictly letters and numbers. It boots the ISO's directly, and seems to be able to deal with any type of Live or OS installer ISO. 1st screen shows everything, but if you hit F3, it will give you a menu of whatever subfolders you created, and allow you to proceed from there. When you boot the stick, it will auto-create a menu for you showing everything you put on the stick. No extraction or other functions required. You can create subfolders to keep things tidy.
It will boot on MBR & EFI systems equally well.Īll you have to do it start copying any ISO files you want to use into that "blank" area. It has installed a boot partition with the required software on it, but you shouldn't need to even view that for most purposes. When you install Ventoy onto your USB stick, and when you access/view the stick, you don't see anything in your file appears totally blank (before adding any ISO's). Extract the downloaded folder Enter in the extracted folder. To extract it, right click on the file and click on the Extract Here option. You will find the downloaded tar file for Ventoy here. Previously, I used Yumi, but that is a windows app and honestly I find it a bit clunky for my liking.

Quite by accident, I recently discovered another multiboot usb tool called Ventoy.
