write_usb's Introduction

Readme

USE: Ventoy instead

This is a modified script of the original Grubby USB example from Linux Format Issue 246

Caution: Make sure you double check the device before using this script. I take no responsibility for improper use of this script.

Installation & Usage

  1. Check your USB drive with either
    dmesg
        

    or

    lsblk
        
  2. If it’s not blank use ‘gparted’ and create a GPT partition table on the device before entering the script
  3. Prepare ISO images. Download the following images into the same directory as the write_usb script;
    LinkFile name
    Tails 4.0 64bittails-amd64-4.0.iso
    Clonezilla 2.6.4-10 64bitclonezilla-live-2.6.4-10-amd64.iso
    SuperGrub 2.04s1super_grub2_disk_standalone_x86_64_efi_2.04s1.EFI
    Rescatux 0.51b3rescatux-0.51b3.iso
    Debian Live 10.2.0 64bit xfcedebian-live-10.2.0-amd64-xfce.iso
    SystemRescueCD-6.0.3systemrescuecd-6.0.3.iso
    SystemRescueCD-4.8.3systemrescuecd-x86-4.8.3.iso
    Kali XFCE 2019.3 64bitkali-linux-xfce-2019.3-amd64.iso
    MXLinux 19 32bitMX-19_386.iso 2019-10-22
    Linux Mint 19.2 XFCE 64bitlinuxmint-19.2-xfce-64bit.iso

    If you want different OS’s you will have to modify the grub.cfg and the rsync line in the script.

  4. Change ISO_SIZE variable in the write_usb script to match the GB of all ISO images. Make sure you have a big enough USB drive for all of this.q
  5. Starting the script.
    Usage: sudo bash write_usb /dev/sdX
        

    NOTE: Replace /dev/sdX with your USB device.
