Since we're on Lemmy, USB jump drive so they can reinstall a new distro of Linux every ~3 months
94 0 ReplyDo it with Ventoy https://www.ventoy.net/en/index.html
25 0 ReplyVentoy is great. I have a bunch of useful Windows ISOs like win 10 and 11. I also have a bunch of useless ones like Win XP and 7.
I have many useful Linux ISOs and I also have an Android ISO for some reason.
A great tool π₯
7 0 ReplyWinXP isn't compatible with ventoy. At least, it always BSODed for me. Did you have any luck?
2 0 ReplyI haven't actually tried, I honestly mostly use it as ISO storage for VMs.
Where in the process does it BSOD? If it's before you reformat your storage I could try it on my computer, otherwise I won't.
3 0 ReplyXP installer loads, welcomes me, then dies. For me, at least, it was before I even had an opportunity to enter any information for the installation.

I use ventoy all the time! But not all ISOs are compatible with it, I've found. Fedora, for example, and OpenSuse are not compatible with ventoy.
3 0 ReplyWdym? Fedora 38 server and workstation worked fine for me. Might be your drive?
6 0 ReplyI tried Silbertblue, and it failed. It could be the drive, though. I wouldn't be surprised.
