Most programs that allow you to create bootable flash drives, including those that will be discussed below, imply certain actions with the ISO image, i.e. they write it in a certain way to a USB flash drive.


However, the Ventoy program works a little differently, and this is its main feature: in order to create a bootable USB flash drive with Linux, we just need to install the program on a USB flash drive and copy the ISO image to this flash drive in the usual way. At the same time, we can copy not only one image, but several, and not only ISO files of Linux distributions, but also other ISO images of boot systems.




Moreover, this flash drive, after it becomes bootable, you can continue to use, i.e. store regular files on it.


However, of course, this program also has its drawbacks, for example, the fact that some ISO files may have problems, i.e. not all ISO files will boot, but most ISO files, including Linux distributions, are of course supported.
