2. Copy the windows ISO file to the bootable USB stick in your linux system.
3. Reboot your computer and select USB to boot and you will boot into Ventoy and then select the Windows ISO file to boot.
I downloaded the linux tar gz file for 1.0.74.
Expanded it.
And none of the GUI options would run bc my glibc is 2.15 which is too old.
So I went with the script version but it refuses to install.

Nothing is using the USB stick.
How to get Ventoy to install?
Here's what the new USB stick looks like in GParted.
