I was referring to making an image to be booted from the flash drive.Gampy wrote:Mudduck514,
Are you thinking along the lines of making an iso image of an installation and using Ventoy to boot that or going through an install each time ??
One would NOT have to install anything to the flash drive other than Ventoy - you simply copy an .iso to the flash drive. So, only make an image once.
You could put an .iso of whatever Linux variant you wanted, and perhaps use it to make an .iso of the HDD.
I do not know enough about Linux to know if if supports the task or would need an additional app.
Then again, I create a 50 - 100GB partition on MY HDD for windows (Depends on Windows version and HDD size), and use the rest for storage.

P.S. These are on mine:
android-x86-9.0-r2.iso
DragonOS_Focal_PublicR18.iso
Hiren's.BootCD.15.2.iso
pmagic_2013_08_01.iso
ubcd538.iso
ubuntu-18.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso
Windows-7-64-bit-multi.iso
Windows XP Professional SP3 Dell OEM.ISO
The 2 Windows .iso files are INSTALLERS, while the others are LiveCD - meaning they boot a full OS.
