Has  anyone that uses BIBM been able to boot a Ventoy flash USB from the BIBM boot menu? For me, Ventoy won't boot from there with a
strange message that says the boot sector does not support its location on the hard drive. For some reason BIBM doesn't like the
way the flash is created. I don't have problems with other bootable flash USBs. Thanks for any infos on this.

I want to deploy iVentoy in my labs to streamline my VM deployment and automate the installation. I've set up a completely new Ubuntu 22.04 new VM:

Hi all,
I have debian-live-12.0.0-amd64-kde.iso on a ventoy cd.
The linuxmint-21.1-cinnamon-64bit.iso works fine with persistance

BUT when I choose debian-live-12.0.0-amd64-kde.iso ventoy does go through the boot up correctly and allows me to choose debian-live-12.0.0-amd64-kde.iso with persistance. I can log into the desktop and install apps, but when I reboot, theres no persistance. ie it DOES NOT SAVE BETWEEN SESSIONS.

Here is my directory structure:
.
├── debian-live-11.7.0-amd64-kde.iso
├── debian-live-12.0.0-amd64-kde.iso
├── linuxmint-21.1-cinnamon-64bit.iso
└── ventoy
    ├── persistence_debian-live-11.7.0-amd64-kde.dat
    ├── persistence_debian-live-12.0.0-amd64-kde.dat
    ├── persist_LM-21.2-cinnamon.dat
    └── ventoy.json

1 directory, 7 files


*The persistence_debian-live-12.0.0-amd64-kde.dat is simply the  persistence_ext4_4GB_casper-rw.dat  file renamed.
* Here is my ventoy.json file:
{
    "persistence":
    [
        {
            "image": "/linuxmint-21.1-cinnamon-64bit.iso",
            "backend":"/ventoy/persist_LM-21.2-cinnamon.dat"
        },
        {
            "image": "/debian-live-12.0.0-amd64-kde.iso",
            "backend":"/ventoy/persistence_debian-live-12.0.0-amd64-kde.dat"
        },
        {
            "image": "/debian-live-11.7.0-amd64-kde.iso",
            "backend":"/ventoy/persistence_debian-live-11.7.0-amd64-kde.dat"
        }
    ]
}



Is there something I'm missing for debian 12 to make it persistant?
Why does Linuxmint 21.1 work perfectly with persistance and not debian 12?

Any help would be appreciated.

thanks

172.20.1.76是bios启动，172.20.1.82是uefi启动，172.16.3.100是iventoy服务器
有2个dncp池，172.20.1.0/24,  172.16.3.0/24，172.16.3.0/24能正常uefi启动。172.20.1.0/24只能bios启动
环境esxi6.0里的虚拟机，uefi pxe启动会显示Downloading NBP file...然后很快弹会到bios启动界面
下图是爱快里所有dncp池的设置，是不是设置错了？

注意：一定不要采取解压、然后覆盖老版本文件的形式进行升级。

要按照如下步骤升级：
1. 解压新版本
2. 把老版本的 data/config.dat 文件拷贝到新版本的 data  目录下。
3. 把老版本的 iso 目录下的 ISO 文件剪切到新版本的 iso 目录下。（同一个盘下剪切不耗时间）

这样升级之后老版本的配置都会得到保存。

Attention: Never upgrade in the form of decompressing and then overwriting the old version of the files.

Please use the new version as follows:
1. Decompress the new release
2. Copy   data/config.dat file from the old version to the data  directory of the new version.
3. Cut/Move all the ISO files under iso directory from the old version to the new version.

Then all the configuration in the old version will be kept.

If I have more than 99 .isos in my /iso folder, iVentoy crashes on me. Please increase to 999 in an update. Thanks!

Hi,

I'm having problem with proxmox ve 8. Its similar to the problem I had with debian and ubuntu. The pc I am using as a test rig is a 6th gen intel prosessor and chipset with an RTL8111H gigabit lan controller. It doesn't get an ip address, and I cant ping my network.

I use iventoy 1.10.15 with External mode, my dhcp is on openwrt.
When boots from win isos, everything works fine. Amazing.
But when boots from linux isos, only got ubuntu 20.04 server work. Others like alpine, ubuntu 22.04 desktop/server all fails.

Looks the iso is being downloaded into the tmp but out of space. Any suggestions please? Thanks in advance!
