From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

four programs to make Linux boot media

Or you can use one Ventoy to make a boot media with four Linux ISOs.

What are some recommendations for putting Ventoy on your main USB (with other contents instead of just ISOs)? I need to find the guide I saw, it mentioned some configurations to prevent it from searching every directory for ISOs

Also the linked website can be subscribed to from here :)

https://www.ventoy.net/en/doc_search_path.html

tl;dr: create a .ventoyignore file inside the folder you want Ventoy not to scan.

I never really noticed performance decrease. But still this is great to know - thank you!
