Ventoy can be booted in many ways, serving many needs.
I understand ExFAT is the preferred filesystem for the 1st partition, but that EXT and other filesystems are possible.
What are the downsides of using an EXT, or NTFS for the 1st partition? I am aware of the differences between filesystems, I am asking about the effect on other features in Ventoy?

Ventoy is a wonderful app that is helpful in many ways.
I would like to boot to Ubuntu live ISO, install a program, then shutdown, and later boot back to the same ISO, and have the program still installed. Does Ventoy have a way to do this? Thank you.

Ventoy is a great open source app, that is easy to use, and powerful, open source.
I am using a minimal GUI WinPE, and my goal is to manually add drivers to it.
Does Ventoy Injection plugin only mount folder in WinPE session, or does it both mount and then add drivers to detect disks?

Hello.
I am a PC enthusiaist and I own many older laptops (10-15 years old), as well some older desktop PCs from 2016 year and newer.
I did install Ventoy on my 256 GB USB pen drive with many .iso images, but on some laptops I was unable to run Ventoy normally, due to error messages on pictures below.
I believe issue has to do with either I am booting Ventoy UEFI or Legacy system.
So I need help on how to make installation again so I can run normally Ventoy on older as well on newer systems with UEFI support?

Ventoy 1.07, when use any and all Linux ISO, such as Ubuntu, Mint, when inside of Live ISO desktop, Gnome Disks cannot mount the Ventoy Exfat partition that contains the ISOs. I have seen this problem for many versions, there used to be a box you could check in the settings, but that is gone now for a few versions, I did see it in the Changelog.
In 1.07 changelog it says it fixed it, but it does not work on any Linux ISO I have loaded.

When I boot to AnkTech WinPE or HirensBootCD, the screen resolution is 800x600 with no ability to change it. The resolution on the Ventory menu is 1024x768. I know this has been asked before and was wondering if anyone found a solution? I would like 1024x768 in AnkTech and hirens.

My system is UEFI only.

Also, I have Parted Magic; any way to add Persistence?

Dear members,



I created a HowTo on my SourceForge site:
How to boot several .ISO files from an USB/SD/HDD/SSD device using a Ventoy boot loader, and create a Data and Swap partition

also available in PDF file format:
2505MG-{version}-HowTo-Ventoy-on-USB-SD-HDD-SSD-with-data-and-swap-partition.pdf


A data partition to store personal files, and a swap partition to prevent performance issues or a system crash, are created on the USB/SD/HDD/SSD device as well.

This HowTo is Public Domain, so you can use it to your liking.

Edit: I added Windows screen dumps



I hope someone likes this!

there's a big discussion on OpenSUSE (Linux) users Mailing list about Ventoy 
and why it doesn't work with OpenSUSE Leap 16 iso, witch has nothing to do with Ventoy. 
Ventoy is the BEST!! tool ever!! OpenSUSE Leap 16 iso, with the new Agama installer is just
junk that doesn't work at all!!  

Whell, have look if you want...

Hi, I'd like to know about which ARM models/boards are currently 100% tested and supported by iVentoy. 

i.ex. Has anyone ever tried to serve it from a Raspberry Pi Zero 2W ? What's the absolute minimum hardware you have succesfully run it from?



Thank you.
