I installed Ventoy to a VHD because I wanted to avoid having to use an entire device dedicated to Ventoy, but I haven't found a way to boot Ventoy from the VHD. Is this even possible? Might be a good enhancement if Ventoy could run from a VHD instead of a requiring a physical device.
Sure, it is possible to install in vhd. But as for me I was able to use it in VirtualBox

Quote:I have a boot-able HDD partition with a BCD to boot WinPE wim files and other Windows VHDs. I would like to add Ventoy as another VHD in that partition, but I'm not sure if the BCD can be configured to work for that. Is what I have in mind even possible?

Okay. But when booting Ventoy from VHD, Ventoy won't mount iso. This will lead to booting linux iso, unix iso, bsd iso,... will fail.
