Hello,

I have issue with ventoy 1.0.12,

The halt option restart my computer after show the "system is halting" pop up.
Tested with old intel laptop (BIOS), intel Z97 desktop (BIOS + UEFI) and virtual box vm.

Also, it will be great to add an option for continue the booting from Hard drive.

After selecting the iso to start on Ventoy (without persistence), it stays frozen on a black screen with a static "_" in the upper left corner. It is possible to make it work by using Ventoy to boot into Grub2 File Manager v7.2.0 and then using it to boot from the Linux Mint 20 beta iso.
Is there a way for me to provide some relevant logs or will you download the image yourself and do the tests? Thank you!

One of my USB devices that has Ventoy on it would not work with memdisk mode. Upon experimenting with it, I realized that I had NTFS formatted the original exFat partition that Ventoy made. While ISO booting worked just fine, Memdisk mode will not properly load or boot ISO if the primary partition is formatted NTFS, but does work with exFat. I have not tested other filesystems, but I prefer to use NTFS over exFat where possible on my devices.

pfSense, an Open Source FreeBSD based firewall distribution is something I use and install on older workstation and server hardware to repurpose it into a firewall device. I put this on my Ventoy bootable media, but during boot of this ISO from Ventoy it cannot find a mount point of some kind and stops. Burning the ISO to CD or booting from a USB stick (without Ventoy) does not have this issue.

多次测试、UEFI启动无法引导win10 ISO、但可以启动PE。

Today I tested (livecd) LuninuxOS-20.04 with Ventoy 1.0.12.

If you have persistence working on an iso ie you made changes and they stuck...not just that the menu offered to boot "with persistence" please post what iso and your ventoy.json.  If so, are you running the most recent version of ventoy?

I've tried 4 different iso's.  Of them one hangs on boot with or without persistence.  The other 3 give me the option to choose "with persistence" but don't actually HAVE persistence from what I can tell.

The ventoy.json I used is (confirmed by https://jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com/ as correect):

{
  "persistence":[
      {
        "image":"/ISO/redobackup-livecd-1.0.5.1.iso",
        "backend":"/persistence/redobackup.img"

Hello
When I install ventoy, the entire receiving medium is automatically formatted in two partitions: EXFAT and FAT16.
This destroys my three partitions EXFAT, LUCKS and FAT32
Is there an option to just download the software to my FAT32 partition?

Thanks for reading me.

hello

this is a message for developers

Currently if the ventoy.json file does not exist.
or if the keyword "persistence" is not found in the ventoy.json file
or if what is written inside the keyword "persistence" has bad syntax
The application decides that there will be no persistence
it's a very bad choice.

It should decide that there is persistence and propose the second screen with the first line allowing to choose not to have persistence and the following lines should list all the files present in the persistence directory.
Indeed it seems to me that the number of files present will never be very large.

In summary: Imposing this codification on users for only a few files is a very bad idea.
If one day the user wants to filter the list, he will make the effort to correctly code the "persistence" chapter in the ventoy.json file.

FYI: I am a member of a French forum offering ventoy
