Hanno CloudwatcherTätigkeitsnachweis: Ich stelle gerade via Ventoy einen USB Stick zusammen um einer Bekannten (Windows-Umsteigerin) einfach ein paar Linux Distributionen zum Ausprobieren vor- und zur Verfügung zu stellen. Mint, MX, Sparky und 2 Fedoras (Gnome und Plasma) müssten eigentlich reichen. Werde sie wohl in Richtung Mint drängeln. <a href="https://social.cologne/tags/mancave" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mancave</a> <a href="https://social.cologne/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#linux</a> <a href="https://social.cologne/tags/ventoy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ventoy</a>

Phil Baker :fedora: :freebsd:I've installed Linux via USB thumb drive probably 100 times. <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Windows</a> is a dumpster fire in comparison. Apparently the Win11 ISO is *literally* made to burn to DVD ROM. In 2025. It cannot be simply copied to a USB drive and booted.<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/WoeUSB" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#WoeUSB</a> purportedly works around this. But it's no longer available in the Fedora repos.<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Ventoy" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Ventoy</a> has worked for me in the past, but not today. Secure Boot is disabled. The Windows 11 .iso boots fine on KVM/QEMU.

ScotsBear 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿I got it working. 🫶 Transpires that my bios might be at fault, not knowing how to deal with a larger-than-normal USB stick. Serves me right for buying one offering a Terabyte. 😁 [<a href="https://kitty.social/tags/WillyWaving" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WillyWaving</a>] But I got a new 16Gb one with the console I bought today so immediately repurposed that one and voila, working Ventoy. Quite nifty software, that. Enables multiple live USB loading, selectable from a GRUB menu, while also leaving the empty space free for storage. Cram it full of iSOs and porn (the new Netflix and Chill).

Ian ChardThe comment thread on the <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/ventoy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ventoy</a> blob bug is getting wild.

Ríni Fogol<a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Ventoy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ventoy</a> is a tool that allows you to <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/boot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#boot</a> an <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/iso" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#iso</a> file directly from a <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/USB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USB</a> drive. Many people recommend it online, but most people are unaware that Ventoy modifies the installation ISO and injects <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/binary_blobs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#binary_blobs</a>.There is probably no acceptable reason to use it. I recommend that you consider all installations made with Ventoy as <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/tampered_with" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tampered_with</a> and <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/untrusted" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#untrusted</a>.

vrtxdAfter months of procrastinating on it, I finally clean installed Windows 11 and Debian 12 (Linux) on my personal laptop. I intend to use Debian by default as my daily OS and dual boot to Windows if needed. If you want a clean install of W11, check out Windows Utility (Chris Titus Tech) and its MicroWin functionality. Oh and Ventoy is awesome: a single flash drive with all the .iso installers you need, readily bootable.<a href="https://piipitin.fi/tags/DualBoot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DualBoot</a> <a href="https://piipitin.fi/tags/Windows11" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Windows11</a> <a href="https://piipitin.fi/tags/Debian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Debian</a> <a href="https://piipitin.fi/tags/GNU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GNU</a> <a href="https://piipitin.fi/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a> <a href="https://piipitin.fi/tags/WinUtil" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WinUtil</a> <a href="https://piipitin.fi/tags/MicroWin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MicroWin</a> <a href="https://piipitin.fi/tags/Ventoy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ventoy</a> <a href="https://piipitin.fi/tags/FOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FOSS</a>
