# Ventoy
|
||||
|
||||
[Ventoy](https://www.ventoy.net/en/index.html) is an open-source tool to create a bootable USB
|
||||
stick.
|
||||
Ventoy enables the stick to contain multiple image files at once and easily add and remove it from
|
||||
the stick.
|
||||
|
||||
## Setup
|
||||
|
||||
For [Windows](/wiki/windows.md) the easiest way to install Ventoy to an USB stick is to navigate to
|
||||
the [Ventoys download page](https://www.ventoy.net/en/download.html).
|
||||
On there download the file named similarly to `ventoy-...-windows.zip`.
|
||||
After unzipping it an executable is contained that can install Ventoy to a USB stick.
|
||||
|
||||
For most [Linux distributions](/wiki/linux.md) Ventoy contained in a package named `ventoy` or
|
||||
`ventoy-bin`.
|
||||
Using it Ventoy can be installed to a USB stick with a command like the following.
|
||||
In this example the USB stick to install to is listed under `/dev/sdg`.
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
ventoy -i /dev/sdg
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
The most important steps to use a Ventoy stick is the adding and removal of image files to the
|
||||
stick.
|
||||
Unlike the usual flashing that is for example shown in the
|
||||
[Linux ISO Image entry](/wiki/linux/iso_image.md) `.iso` or other image files can just be moved or
|
||||
copied to the empty partition of a Ventoy installed USB stick.
|
||||
Using this partition the image files can also be removed.
