Looking for recommendations for a versatile USB stick with Ventoy. I'm trying to create the "perfect, all-in-all" USB stick using Ventoy to store various ISOs and rescue tools. So far, I have the following ISOs:

  • Arch
  • OpenSuse TW
  • NixOS
  • Bazzite + AuroraDX
  • Win10 ISO
  • Clonezilla

I'm looking for suggestions on additional ISOs or tools that are compatible with Ventoy. What do you recommend adding to make my USB stick to make it more useful?

It's a 64GB stick and i manually keep it in sync with my netbootxyz instance

Ohhh I've meant to try out netbootxyz for a while now, thanks for the reminder!

you're welcome!

to be fair, it's more of a gimmick when using it in your home. I have a notebook that i use to test out new distros on and i can hook it up to my LAN and quickly install something without whipping out the USB stick.

Also the mini gaming pc hooked to my TV is a victim of being reinstalled every couple months after i tinker around too much.
