perhaps badly written ISO, or other issue

#

try compatibility mode boot, or verify

tawdry rock
#

it used to do it

#

ok

karmic glade
#

perhaps this way, not legacy. or vice versa

tawdry rock
#

i only have 1 usb option and compatibility mode does not work

karmic glade
#

or disable CSM altogether

#

if that doesn't help, then you may need to reflash your usb

tawdry rock
#

will that delete all my data?

karmic glade
#

what data?

tawdry rock
#

like the installation

karmic glade
#

no no

tawdry rock
#

oh good

karmic glade
#

means making a new usb for booting

tawdry rock
#

oh ok

karmic glade
#

like burning an installer/live DVD in the older days

tawdry rock
#

kk

#

see this guide here. #1295816480256163892 message

#

with that, u can just drag n drop or delete ISOs (or regular data files) at any time.

#

was this related to another post about resizing your linux partition?

tawdry rock
#

i think u sent another one

#

also can i flash while linux is running?

karmic glade
#

yes of course. the guide above mentions u can install ventoy from a linux environment, or from a Windows environment. just get the right file.

tawdry rock
#

ok

#

thanks

karmic glade
#

if you're looking for just a bootable environment to resize your partition of Linux, you can get gparted-live or miniOS standard (though u have to get gparted once IN miniOS live)

tawdry rock
#

ok

karmic glade
#

if u already have a good Mint iso on the computer, then use that

tawdry rock
#

yea

#

i dragged it from windows

#

thanks for the help 👍

karmic glade
#

Is this solved now?

tawdry rock
#

yes

#

thanks a lot
