minus-squareI'm back on my BS 🤪linkfedilinkEnglish94•9 months agoSince we’re on Lemmy, USB jump drive so they can reinstall a new distro of Linux every ~3 months
minus-square@ZAX2717@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink25•9 months agoDo it with Ventoy https://www.ventoy.net/en/index.html
minus-square@lud@lemm.eelinkfedilink7•9 months agoVentoy is great. I have a bunch of useful Windows ISOs like win 10 and 11. I also have a bunch of useless ones like Win XP and 7. I have many useful Linux ISOs and I also have an Android ISO for some reason. A great tool 🔥

minus-square@lud@lemm.eelinkfedilink3•9 months agoI haven’t actually tried, I honestly mostly use it as ISO storage for VMs. Where in the process does it BSOD? If it’s before you reformat your storage I could try it on my computer, otherwise I won’t.
