I added a fresh linuxmint-21.1-cinnamon-64bit.iso to my Ventoy 1.0.88 stick and although it appears in the menu list along with all my other files it fails to completely boot. I have tried normal and Grub 2 options and both seem to fail.
Upon selection I get the Mint Grub menu and it all starts OK but then hangs with either a blank screen or the green mint icon that usually appears part way through booting. This is on a laptop running the same version natively and the ISO burnt to USB drive in the traditional manner also works fine as do all my other images on the Ventot drive. (Leap, clonezilla, System Rescue etc).
I notice that at https://www.ventoy.net/en/distro_iso/linux_mint.html V21 (not 21.1) is shown as only tested on UEFI and I know Mint now assume UEFI for installs but it is still easily possible to install on non UEFI systems so I can't see why it wouldn't work under Ventoy given I have it working in other ways.
