YUMI (Your Universal Multiboot Installer) can be used to create a multi-boot USB flash drive containing multiple operating systems, antivirus utilities, disc cloning, diagnostic tools, and more. Aside from a few distributions, all files are stored within the Multiboot folder, making for a nicely organized Multiboot Drive that can still be used for other storage purposes. YUMI uses syslinux to boot extracted distributions stored on the USB device, and reverts to using grub to Boot Multiple ISO files from USB, if necessary.
YUMI works much like Universal USB Installer, except it can be used to install more than one distribution to run from your USB. Distributions can also be uninstalled.

Tested out the other day to get both DBAN and then Knoppix on a USB drive and it worked very well. I was initially annoyed that the tool wasn't automatically downloading and writing: I had to let it launch a web browser to download the ISO, then direct the tool where to get it, and then start creating a USB boot drive. However, I couldn't think of a way this could be done automatically without getting on my nerves (what do you do with the ISO after it's burned - delete it? how?).

I use YUMI in conjunction with 'Command Prompt Here' and 'WGET for Windows'...

I've been using this instead of Unetbootin and LinuxLive USB Creator (LiLi) for the last 6 months or so. Not as pretty at LiLi but its fantastic being able to easily add multiple Linux distros and even Windows Installs onto a single flash drive. |
Bandizip is an archive tool that supports the creation and extraction of common compression formats, as well as the specialized ZIPX format (from the makers of WinZip). Supports a customizable interface, the searching of archives by file name, file splitting, password protection, self-extracting archives, and varying levels of compression. Also supports the creation and extraction of more specialized formats from 7-zip and WinRAR.
Additionally, Bandizip's "High Speed Archiving" function will allow you to compress or bypass the files its own algorithm on multimedia files (AVI, WMV, MP3...) or archive files (ZIP, RAR, 7Z...) that won't benefit from additional compression. This can increase archiving speed dramatically. Extract formats supported include 7Z, ZIPX, RAR, ALZ, EGG, TAR, BH, LZH, BZ2, ISO, CAB, WIM, XZ, ARJ, ZIP, Z and more.
Supports both 32 and 64-bit, as well as 29 world languages. A portable beta version is also available.

Oh, and why is there never a change log shown for Bandizip's updates? I've even had that problem on their site.

Thanks, Midas! My mistake; I kept looking in the Bandizip forum, rather than the Bandisoft announcements. |

I agree, it needs an erase function! |
Linux Live USB Creator allows you to create a bootable drive with any of a long list of distributions. The program is faster than similar tools and can use almost any bootable ISO (excluding Windows XP or Mac OS X). Additionally, the program supports the Linux "Persistence" feature, which works like a Live distribution while saving your data and settings. Persistence enables you to keep your settings between sessions, while reduces the wear on USB flash media by keeping writes to a minimum.
Note: Although this program works with a portable version of VirtualBox (available from the download page) to let users test an OS without rebooting, this has not been tested as portable.

Works great on my 8gb drive. Only problem is that persistence doesn't work with Virtual Box on W7/Vista. U can have 1 or the other but not both. Bummer. Should be OK on XP machines though.
