[Mod note: the present is the official forum topic for YUMI; https://www.portablefreeware.com/?id=2368]
An excelent flash drive boot tool, that has been mentioned a couple of times here at TPFC (see viewtopic.php?p=37361#p37361 and viewtopic.php?p=49088#p49088), but hasn't been the subject of a proper submission. Here it is, then...
YUMI is currently up to v7.9, is FOSS, consists of a self-contained portable single executable (stealthiness not tested!) and can be downloaded from the link in the quote above.
Here's the (alpha sorted) list of currently supported distributions:

Contrary to MultiBootISO's which used Grub to boot ISO files directly from USB, 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. 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.
