Not really for ventoy but have you heard about medicat ? I have bookmarked it for sometime now but never had a chance to try.
Edit: medicat also supports ventoy
Yeah medicat is based on ventoy. Ama. I wrote the site.
Love medicat
Ama
I am wondering is there any way i can add my own iso's to a medicat drive? like is it just like the ventoy installer and can i than just use it as a preinstalled ventoy drive to put my own live iso/windows install media on it? or is it 1 drive only for medicat?
(btw i disabled my add blocker when reading your message about the only way to keep the site running i like this kind of hey i noticed you are running an add blocker kind of message and just wanted to support with adds)
Edit i found a typo on your site: https://medicatusb.com/docs/installation/supported-drives/ "We SRONGLY suggest" i think you meant STRONGLY
Yes you can. I add a window 11 iso to it as well
You might not need it but it's a very small image (3.5MB for multi-arch iso) so why not?
DBan is always useful.

this is exactly why i posted this. I learned some new tool :)

Me, too. I've never tried Ventoy. I usually use Rufus or some other app.
Is it still aimed primarily at HDDs or does it have SSD utilities now? As I understand it, most of its wiping methods are/we're geared toward HDDs
A recent Arch Linux ISO is usually all I need
Arch Linux ISO
are you an arch user by any chance?
He uses Arch BTW

Not on my server but it's the distro I'm most familiar with and that means it's also helpful for my laptop
I keep Arch Linux installed on a USB drive, no ISO for me.
- Clonezilla
- An Ubuntu live ISO is useful
- GParted
- memtest
- Your favourite Linux distro of choice
- If you're running a business for this sort of thing then a few different versions of Windows would probably be useful.
It's been a while since I last used but I still have supergrub on mine. Also Tails
GParted live
A build of WinPE, like Sergei Strelec's one (easily found via Google). Essentially a small version of Windows you can boot into that has a bunch of tools.
