    Also, Ventoy doesn’t work on all hardware. Meanwhile, the typical options work just fine.

      Works for me on Lenovo ThinkCentre M720q’s I’ve sniped used & stacked.

      Although I gotta force text mode in Ventoy menu options, otherwise some distro ISO’s boot into scrambled graphics, suppose I should bother to RTFM sometime.

      I’ve yet to try Ventoy on an external NVMe case I pieced together recently, and on my wife’s newer laptop.

        I don’t mean to be rude, but great? Didn’t work for me on all my hardware, even using a Windows ISO. I pointed out my personal experience, because it’s not the panacea its proponents would have everyone believe.

        I would certainly never use it to install anything, after my experiences with it. If it can’t get opening ISOs right, I don’t need a surprise that my install is fucked up.
