Hi,

Thank you so much for this tool.

I want to know if this tool supports IA32 PXE client -- meaning, I have IA32 (32-bit Intel CPU) machines/laptops that need to be PXE-booted to discover/test hardware or install OS. 

So, first I tried using Linux version of iVentoy. The client hung after receiving ipxe.bios.0 boot file. I thought, Linux version (64-bit) might be sending 64-bit boot file; so, it makes sense why it would not work. (Note: 64-bit PXE/CPU client booted fine.)

Then, I tried Windows 32-bit iVentoy - thinking that it would send 32-bit ipxe.bio.0. But I encountered the same problem.

So, I suspect that iVentoy only supports 64-bit PXE clients - meaning, irrespective which version of iVentoy software you use (IA32 or x64), ipxe.bios.0 is 64-bit code.

Can you please confirm? If I am correct, I request to support 32-bit PXE client from all iVentoy versions -- especially Linux.

Thank you again.

I would like to ask if there is a way to create a USB without ISO selection so that it can find and boot the internal M2 drive with EFI Win10 OS on it?

For example in this way:

{
    "control": [
        { "VTOY_MENU_TIMEOUT": "10" },
        { "VTOY_DEFAULT_IMAGE": "F4>Search PCIE M2 and boot EFI Windows" }
    ]
}

Not all BIOS'es support M.2 in PCIE ver.2 slot. A simple upgrade eliminates this problem But, in order for the BIOS to load the OS, you need to insert an additional module into the BIOS. And this is already complicated and can cause problems.
I would think it would be much more convenient to boot from tiny USB which redirect booting to PCIE slot with Windows EFI in it. Such an option would also be convenient in the case when you have to frequently replace other disks in the computer.

Hi

iventoy crashes without an error message if there is a SPARC boot ISO image in the iso directory -- example:

I can't use my windows 7 as host for iVentoy since the beginning till recent 1.0.17
It start and open web link but nothing working and non clickable and frozen, I check on one PC and one laptop with Win7 and both have same Freeze symptom
The freeze maybe go away after a while but click on one item and again freezing
The Green play not start or if start, iVentoy immediately will Crash. i check with different Windows ISOs
It work fine on Windows 10 LTSB and i can manage it from my Windows 7 PC browser
I read in some post you said it only need Visual C++ .. both my Win7 are fully updated and with latest Visual C++
can you please tell me if Win7x64 supported? and if yes is there any Requirements ?

Thank you for great SW

I have created an entry in ventoy_grub.cfg for booting void linux from /dev/sda6 on a Ventoy disk, but get an error msg:-

error: unknown filesystem.
error: you need to load the kernel first.

The same grub.cfg works fine when I try booting from a non-Ventoy disk.

Can someone explain what is going on and how to overcome this error?

Boot menu contains many directories, every directory hold ISO files.
1.how can I set background to specified directory  in boot menu that contains iso files differ than them background.
For example, if I want to install windows 10, I should enter windows directory from boot menu, then the background should change to microsoft.
This feacher exist in grub boot.
2.how to write comment in json file.
