Congratulations for the project and a big THANK YOU for publishing it for free under GPL license.
4. I have been playing with Chrome OS (Brunch Framework, to be more precise) and one of their install options is to create a disk image (.img) in a ext4 or ntfs partition and boot from it by adding to grub an entry like this:
Code:menuentry "Chrome OS"{
img_part=/dev/sdb3
img_path=/chromeos.img
search --no-floppy --set=root --file $img_path
loopback loop $img_path
linux (loop,gpt7)/kernel boot=local noresume noswap loglevel=7 disablevmx=off \
cros_secure cros_debug loop.max_part=16 img_part=$img_part img_path=$img_path
initrd (loop,gpt7)/initramfs.img
}
I have added it to the grub install I already have on another disk and it worked fine but it would be cool if Ventoy allowed custom entries like this to be added to it's own grub manually, so we could boot Chrome OS (and other images similarly) with no need to have grub in another disk.
thanks for the info on brunch !
I am considering it now and it's great to know that it can boot from a ventoy usb key !!
but, if I may dare, I have a couple of questions :
. is the above grub configuration still needed now that ventoy can boot CloudReady or FydeOS .img files ?
... let me check if I can boot it from grub ...
(this was on my Surface Go 2, there might be sthg wrong with my setup as it could not boot brunch from my USB stick but it worked on some other laptops ...)
