  [SOLVED] Loading .iso directly without loading the boot menu.
Posted by: BKPB - 10-03-2021, 10:04 AM - Forum: Ventoy Discussion Forum - Replies (4)

I have only one image on my USB drive Windows_7.iso how to create a vento script.json to automatically load the image.iso without displaying the ventoy boot menu ?

Code:
{
    "control": [
        { "VTOY_DEFAULT_MENU_MODE": "0" },
        { "VTOY_FILT_DOT_UNDERSCORE_FILE": "1" },
        { "VTOY_TREE_VIEW_MENU_STYLE": "0" },
        { "VTOY_SORT_CASE_SENSITIVE": "0" },
        { "VTOY_MAX_SEARCH_LEVEL": "max" },
        { "VTOY_DEFAULT_SEARCH_ROOT": "/ISO" },
        { "VTOY_MENU_TIMEOUT": "0" },
        { "VTOY_DEFAULT_IMAGE": "/Windows_7_Pro_x86_x64_11.08.2021.iso" }
    ],
   
    "theme": {
        "file": "/ventoy/theme/theme.txt",
        "gfxmode": "1920x1080",       
        "display_mode": "GUI",
        "ventoy_left": "5%",
        "ventoy_top": "95%",
        "ventoy_color": "#191919"
    },
   
   "image_list": [
        "/Windows_7_Pro_x86_x64_11.08.2021.iso"
    ]

  Partition 3 works... sometimes
Posted by: AcklenX - 10-01-2021, 06:27 PM - Forum: Ventoy Discussion Forum - Replies (4)

I've noticed that when I reserve space, and then later partition it and save files to it, that partition is not always detected or accessible.  I haven't figured out the pattern yet, but I haven't been very rigorous with my effort.  And Ventoy is so awesome any way I just keep using it.

My situation is that I I help out high school computer club and I am trying to create USB drives that we can boot on the kids laptops, or the schools desktops.  The kids computers are almost always windows (with the occasional mac).  The school computers are desktops and a mix of Windows 7-10 and Linux (Ubuntu and Mint).  We would like to be able to boot to whatever we have loaded on the first partition - and this always works great!  Not a problem at all.  But we also sometimes want to use the USB drive to copy files from machine to machine AND read the file when we use Ventoy to boot.  But some of the machines can't see partition 3 that was created when we reserved space installing Ventoy.  We did also partition that reserved space, labeled it "storage" and added files.  Some windows machines can see it, some can't.  All the linux machines (I think) can see storage just fine.  We created the Ventoy USB drives on both Windows and Linux machines.  I think we used the same options for all (we were supposed to).  But we get inconsistent results.

This is particularly problematic because often we'll have files and information on a Windows machine that we want to then boot into linux, and use that info/file.  But we can't copy it to storage, because Windows doesn't see it.  So we copy it to the first partition "Ventoy".  But then when we boot into via Ventoy into one of the ISOs, the first partition isn't readable, so we can't see our file.

The other problem that I run into, is that I often want to copy the iso files around, but they're on the first partition which isn't useful... there may be 5 or 10 ISOs (I love Ventoy!) but I can't read any of them... I'm not sure how/why it's mounted like that - I assume it's just part of the way that grub2/linux works.  But that points to my holy grail, to be able to read from the first partition while booted into the first partition.  Right now my work around is I copy most things to both partition 1 and partition 3.  But for ISO files that eats up disk space quite quickly.  And I have to commit early on as to how much space I'll reserve. 

Is there a way to verify the current state of the disk from Ventoy's perspective - like what the equivalent command line was?  I expected the -l switch to do this, but it doesn't give enough info that I can tell.  Is there a verbose listing? ;D. I typically create the disks with Ventoy2Disk.sh -i -s -r XXXX /dev/sdX

Am I missing something obvious?  Is this just a linux limitation with booting and reading? I definitely blame Windows Wink  My work around is to carry extra USBs but that just seams antithetical to what Ventoy is and makes possible.  Ventoy is awesome, it's the best/easiest multiboot I've found.  Sorry for sounding greedy and for wanting more.

solved 【Solved】How to arrange the rows in menu_alias in the right order
Posted by: BKPB - 09-30-2021, 08:11 AM - Forum: Ventoy Plugin Forum - Replies (7)

How to arrange the rows in menu_alias in the order I need

Code:
"menu_alias":[
        {
            "image":"/ISO/Windows_7_Pro_x86_x64_11.08.2021.iso",
            "alias":"Windows 7       Pro    x86 x64                    11.08.2021"
        },
        {
            "image":"/ISO/Windows_7_&_10_Pro_x86_x64_30.05.2021.iso",
            "alias":"Windows 7 & 10  Pro    x86 x64                    30.05.2021"
        },
        {
            "image":"/WinPE/WinPE_Sergei_Strelec_x86_x64_19.07.2021.iso",
            "alias":"WinPE Sergei Strelec   x86 x64                    19.07.2021"
        },
        {
            "image":"/WinPE/WinPE_Super.iso",
            "alias":"WinPE Super"
        },
        {
            "image":"/Memtest/Memtest86+_4.3.7 _& _7.5.0.iso",
            "alias":"Memtest        4.3.7  &  7.5.0"
        }
    ]
}

The boot menu is not in the same order as in "menu_alias"

  suggestion for new release
Posted by: haimoura - 09-24-2021, 09:41 AM - Forum: Ventoy Discussion Forum - Replies (4)

Hi everyone

Thank you all the programmers of this very handy tool I really loved it and switch all my install media from other similar software,

firstly if this is wrong place to post please move the post kindly to correct forum

I have one suggestion as I am using Linux version on Manjaro and it is working fine now with the last update and the GUI is great.. but missing one button.
I suggest to make a button for testing the the instllation media on qemu
just a click which excute the following command

Code:
sudo qemu-system-x86_64 -MMM /dev/sdX -m 4096
as the MMM will represent installation media
and     sdX   will be the device name
the memory part can be excluded or be an option on the side of the button.

thank you for your  effort and time
Adil

  [SOLVED] Is downsizing persistent.dat possible?
Posted by: Plurix - 09-23-2021, 11:02 PM - Forum: Ventoy Discussion Forum - Replies (3)

It is now possible to extend persistent dat file by using sudo sh ExtendPersistentImg.sh  datfile extend_size_mb (see 5. Extend persistent dat file here).

For example:


Code:
sudo sh ExtendPersistentImg.sh  persistent.dat 2048

"That means extend persistent.dat by 2048MB (+2GB), if the old size is 1GB, then it will grow to 3GB after you extend it."


My question is: Is it possible to do the opposite? Downsize persistent.dat?...

Example: Assuming I have a 96GB persistent.dat file, I want to resize to 64GB (65536MB). Can I issue the command below?


Code:
sudo sh ExtendPersistentImg.sh  persistent.dat -32768

So that, in the end, I'd get a persistent dat file reduced to 64GB (65536MB).

solved 【Solved】Create a Ventoy persistence on Windows (for Linux)
Posted by: Machou - 09-23-2021, 10:41 PM - Forum: Ventoy Plugin Forum - Replies (2)

Hello Community =)

Following the documentation of Ventoy on the official site, it indicates how to create a peristance for an ISO file.

So far, nothing fancy, but it's for Linux. While I'm under Windows 10, I tried to create via Ubuntu on Hyper-V but I can't find my USB key.

Does anyone have a tip, besides being on Linux? :p

Regards
