i am using an hp laptop (15s fq 2000) and the firmware is american megatrend. i was hoping ventoy’s method would help overcome whatever is creating a problem, but the same as with other installers, the lubuntu 22.04 worked fine and the ubuntu got stuck at the welcome screen. maybe someone here knows what the issue might be, or let me know if it is unrelated and i should be looking elsewhere.

When I disable UEFI the stick boots fine as soon as I enable UEFI the stick is not properly recognized and does not boot at all. I get a recovery windows screen even the USB is on the top. The bios shows the brand of the USB Stick in non uefi mode while in uefi mode it does not show the brand from the USB stick which is also quite strange. 
I am using a Acer Aspire V15 Nitro Black Edition ....

any ideas? I tried with GPT and MBR .....no difference .....

Hello

Sorry if the subject is already present, I confess to having done a lot of research without success...

Below are screenshots to show my config

Everything is OK in green
No extra slash...
At launch, I can select my ISO and my template, but at the end of the Windows installation, I have Cortana which host and I have to select the language...

My template is ignored, but why?

Can you help me ?

Thanks in advance

EDIT : Info : Rufus with same .xml (rename unattend.xml) in root folder = No Problem...

请问是怎么回事呢？

I've booted "systemrescue-9.03-amd64.iso" many times with no problem on my Asus Rog Laptop.

I just changed the RAM (same size - just faster Ripjaws CL34 instead of stock CL40).  For what it is worth, the ram works fine, but not at the advertised speed (motherboard has no options to set CL, and seems to use old speeds instead... but I digress).

Since changing the RAM, I can no longer boot systemrescue-9.03-amd64.iso (I *can* boot a 32gb "dd" image of windows recovery - just not the iso) - it reports an out-of-memory problem, and returns to the ventoy menu.

How the brand of RAM might make any difference here I have no idea.

I created a whole new Ventoy USB and tried again (same problem).

If I change back to the old ram, I'll return here and let you know if it now works again.

I just did this, and it works:

In Windows 11, Start -> Recovery -> Create Recovery USB  (to make a 32gb USB stick)

In Linux (vmware in my case):-

dd if=/dev/sdb bs=8225280 of=Windows_Recovery.img

Mount the ventoy USB into linux, and copy the "Windows_Recovery.img" file onto it.

Reboot

TaDa!! (tested works) - I can now "restore my windows" (and run the recovery tools etc) from my external SSD!

I would like to be able to trigger ventoy installations/updates to USB devices via a script.

Are there command line options that would allow me to do this?

The new Linux distro experimental EasyOS can not be launched using Ventoy.  Here`s the feedback of the creator of Easy OS:

Quote:"What jumps out immediately in that photo is "mnt/zram0".

It seems that you haven't told the kernel where easy.sfs is.
From the photo, it has found initrd, but not easy.sfs.
The three files, vmlinuz, initrd and easy.sfs should all be together.
The kernel will use these parameters to find easy.sfs: specified on the kernel commandline, with "wkg_uuid=" and "wkg_dir=" parameters.
Instead of wkg_uuid, you could use "wkg_label=" or "wkg_dev="
In the latter case, if the working-partition is /dev/sdb2, then use "wkg_dev=sdb2".

But if you are booting from usb, then the drive letters may change, so best to use filesystem uuid or label.

So whatever bootloader you are using, you have specified where initrd is, but have not told the kernel where the ext4 working partition is (and where to find easy.sfs)."

Any idea when Super-UEFIinSecureBoot-Disk v3.4 will be reimplemented? It was the first and only time Ventoy worked on my laptop.
