YUMI v0.0.9.6 Updated

- Suggested by Midas
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. |

Universal USB Installer creates a "Live," or bootable Linux distribution without installation, on an external USB drive. A long list of distributions are available organized by the major groups including Ubuntu, Redhat, and SuSE, as well as specialized distros for system management, rescue, security, and more.

Have a look at the license agreement page, which is displayed when the tool is run.

By the same author(s), YUMI has the additional advantage of enabling multiple 'Live' distros to coexist on a portable USB drive: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/yumi-multiboot-usb-creator/ |
LiLi USB Creator v2.8.21 Updated

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.

Rufus - Reliable USB Formatting Utility (with Source), is a small and fast utility that helps format and create bootable USB flash drives, such as USB keys/pendrives, memory sticks, etc. The program is useful for creating USB installation media from bootable ISOs (Windows, Linux, etc.), working on a system without an OS, flashing BIOS or other firmware from DOS, or you want to run a low-level utility. Functional on 64-bit systems.
Alternatively, Rufus Portable is also available.

Had some odd issues with Lili USB Creator (for some reason couldn't format a drive) that this program seemed to overcome. Good program. |

Warning: although PortableFreeware has a policy against bundleware, the developer added this after the program was entered into the database.

Does anyone know why Sardu duplicates ISOs? and is it necessary? When you download an ISO, Sardu puts it into a folder called ISO. And if you add a file manually, you put the ISO into the same folder. Logical enough... but then Sardu makes a copy of the ISO file in a subfolder called ISOLinux, which means your Sardu directory is roughly twice as big as you thought it would be. So if you download, say, the BitDefender ISO at about 370 MB, you end up with 740 megabytes of BitDefender on your disk. Any one know why?
