  Linux installation: GUI says success, stderr says CRITICAL
Posted by: jakesalomon - 02-14-2023, 02:38 PM - Forum: Ventoy Discussion Forum - Replies (2)

Greetings.

My previous thread (which is not quite resolved) is still open.  However, I am trying it on Linux, where Acronis is not an issue.

As per the video that told be about ventoy, I downloaded and uncompressed & untarred release 1.0.88, opened a terminal window and then ran: 

Code:
sudo ./VentoyGUI.x86_64

The GUI behaved nicely and claimed success at the installation.  However, back to the shell window I see this pair of messages:

Code:
(Ventoy2Disk.gtk3:2251): Gtk-CRITICAL **: 08:56:33.446: gtk_widget_grab_default: assertion 'gtk_widget_get_can_default (widget)' failed

(Ventoy2Disk.gtk3:2251): Gtk-CRITICAL **: 08:56:33.446: gtk_widget_grab_default: assertion 'gtk_widget_get_can_default (widget)' failed

So did it fail or succeed?  Well, when I insert the USB drive again, I do see it on the desktop.  However, when I open it I see nothing.  The bottom border tells me:
0 items, Free space 64.1GB. HMM.. Since it's mounted on /media/jake/Ventoy, let's peek in with ls:

Code:
ls -lda /media/jake/Ventoy/*

ls: cannot access '/media/jake/Ventoy/*': No such file or directory

Not even a boot partition?  I suppose it's a success in that it didn't brick the USB.  But it didn't do anything useful either!  Angry

Wazzup?  Huh

Open to ideas here, folks.

Thanks much for help.

  Windows 10 Recovery Disk
Posted by: mdc37 - 02-09-2023, 11:40 AM - Forum: Ventoy Discussion Forum - Replies (2)

Hi people.

I'm new to Ventoy and I've decided it's time to create a drive on a 1TB portable HDD using Ventoy so I can install various rescue and recovery ISO's in case I should ever need them.

Windows 10 will only allow me to create a Recovery Disk on a dedicated USB stick.

What I'd like to do is create a bootable ISO file of the USB stick that has the recovery files on it to use it on my new Ventoy Drive.

The only way I can see to do that is using ImgBurn or Magic ISO and copying a third party boot file onto it to make it bootable.

Will that work on Ventoy or does anyone have a better suggestion for the best way to go about this?

Thanks for reading.

  Ventoy modifies MBR? Bricked USB drive
Posted by: jakesalomon - 02-08-2023, 05:21 PM - Forum: Ventoy Discussion Forum - Replies (4)

Greetings, folks.

I would not be posting anything if I did not have a nasty newbie problem.  Confused  I'm mainly writing to confirm my suspicions.

I tried running Ventoy2Disk.exe yesterday and it seemed to start OK for a few seconds.  I have Acronis protection and it stopped the ventoy in it tracs, giving me this message box:
[attachment=690]
I presume this is when Ventoy tried to create an MBR on the USB drive, not on my main hard drive.  This is what I need to be assured of so that I can take certain steps.  If Acronis is just a road block I can surely disable the [dis]service while I try again.  (I'll probably post that question on an Acronis forum.)

In the process it also seems to have bricked my USB drive.  Angry Windows will not recognize it more that a beep when I insert it; it no longer shows up on the list of drives when I open "This PC".  (Using Windows 11).  Hmmm... I wonder if it will be recognized when I boot Linux.  As above, the process of un-bricking the USB is beyond the scope of this forum, though if someone has a solution that has worked, I'd appreciate hearing form you.  (Google has provided a gazzillion solution that don't match what I see when I open the dialogs.)

Thanks for help with this.

  关于“引导”MacOS系统镜像的idea(an idea about “booting” MacOS image)
Posted by: FebTweth - 02-08-2023, 03:58 PM - Forum: Ventoy Discussion Forum - Replies (2)

最近在试用了docker版MacOS(sickcodes/Docker-OSX)的 sickcodes/docker-osx:naked 之后,突然萌生了一个想法,既然 vtoyboot 可以制作可由物理机引导的 linux vdisk,那么是否可以将这个docker 中的系统迁移到 vdisk 中,再在物理机上去启动MacOS的系统镜像?

我理解的是,Docker-OSX 通过 qemu 以运行虚拟机的方式启动 MacOS 的img镜像。这样 MacOS 的镜像是动态大小的,而且系统可以通过直通的方式使用硬件。
那么通过ventoy引导一个精简的虚拟机系统(这 个/类 精简系统可以作为ventoy的插件),再分配所有硬件给要运行的虚拟机来启动镜像的方式,是否可行?
我觉得可见的好处是,这样可以临时兼容更多镜像文件,因为只要配置虚拟机就好了;而且这样运行的目标系统虚拟硬盘是动态大小的,可以更有效的利用硬盘空间。

以上是我想当然之言,希望能抛砖引玉!


Recently, after trying out the docker version of MacOS (sickcodes/docker-OSX) -- sickcodes/docker-osx: naked , an idea suddenly arose. Since vtoyboot can make a linux vdisk that can be booted by a physical machine, can the system in this docker be migrate to the vdisk, and then start the system image of MacOS on the physical machine?

In my understanding, Docker-OSX uses qemu to start the img of MacOS by running virtual machine. In this way, the image of MacOS is of dynamic size, and the system can use hardware by passthrough.
So is it feasible to boot a thin virtual machine system (this kinds of thin systems can be used as a plug-in of ventory) with ventory, and then allocate all hardware to the virtual machine to start a target image?
I think the visible advantage is that it can temporarily be compatible with more image files, as long as the virtual machine is configured; Moreover, the virtual hard disk of the target system running in this way is of dynamic size, which can make more effective use of the hard disk space.

The above is what I take for granted. I hope I can throw a brick and draw a jade!

  Problem with the VTOY_DEFAULT_IMAGE parameter
Posted by: Endrju - 02-05-2023, 07:33 AM - Forum: Ventoy Plugin Forum - Replies (2)

I have configured several plugins Global Control, Menu Class, Theme, Alias and everything works without problems.

I have a problem with the Global Control plugin and parameters:

Code:
VTOY_MENU_TIMEOUT
VTOY_DEFAULT_IMAGE

I wanted the indicated ISO image to boot after 10 seconds in case of no response on my side. The countdown is visible on the screen but unfortunately after ten seconds nothing happens, the monitor screen goes black.  Sad

According to what can be found on the Global Control plugin page, the syntax, in the case of my configuration, should look like this:
Code:
{ "VTOY_MENU_TIMEOUT": "10" },
{ "VTOY_DEFAULT_IMAGE": "/ISO/debian_netinstall.iso" },

What could be the problem that it's not working for me?

My Global Control Plugin configuration
Code:
    "control": [
        { "VTOY_MENU_LANGUAGE": "pl_PL" },
        { "VTOY_DEFAULT_MENU_MODE": "1" },
        { "VTOY_TREE_VIEW_MENU_STYLE": "1" },
        { "VTOY_MENU_TIMEOUT": "10" },
        { "VTOY_DEFAULT_IMAGE": "/ventoy/Macrium/MacriumReflect_Home_8.1.7336_Rescue_WinPE10.iso" }
    ],

Structure on my flash drive:
Code:
Folder PATH listing for volume Ventoy
Volume serial number is 4E21-0000
J:\VENTOY
|   ventoy.json
|  
+---theme
|   |   background.jpg
|   |   and so on :)
|   |  
|   \---icons
|           antergos.png
|           and so on :)
|          
+---Windows
|       Win11_22H2_Polish_x64v1.iso
|      
+---Macrium
|       MacriumReflect_Home_8.0.7175_Rescue_WinPE10.iso
|       MacriumReflect_Home_8.1.7336_Rescue_WinPE10.iso
|      
\---ZarzĄdzanie dyskami
        PartExpert_WinPE_EFI_7.3.3.iso

BTW
Is it possible to use Path Matching option in Global Control plugin? I'll admit that it would be very convenient because there it is also possible to point the path to the ISO file.

  Ventoy does not work on Seagate 4TB HDD - Solved
Posted by: Senpai - 02-03-2023, 09:22 AM - Forum: Ventoy Discussion Forum - Replies (6)

Hi:
First of all thank you for this great program that I use regularly for my USBs.

I bought this model of 4TB external HDD: "USB vendor: Seagate model: Expansion HDD: size: 3.64 TiB block-size: physical: 4096 B logical: 512 B type: N/A serial: rev: 1901 scheme: GPT".

I did the installation of Ventoy in GTP, since in MBR it tells me that it can only be done in 2TB, but although the installation and partitions are done correctly, I have tried both in Linux and Windows, Ventoy does not work in this 4TB disk, it does not boot when starting the PC, it does not show anything from Ventoy boot, is there any way to make it work in this disk?

Thanks
