Looking for recommendations for a versatile USB stick with Ventoy. I’m trying to create the “perfect, all-in-all” USB stick using Ventoy to store various ISOs and rescue tools. So far, I have the following ISOs:

  • Arch
  • OpenSuse TW
  • NixOS
  • Bazzite + AuroraDX
  • Win10 ISO
  • Clonezilla

I’m looking for suggestions on additional ISOs or tools that are compatible with Ventoy. What do you recommend adding to make my USB stick to make it more useful?

Ventoy with Arch and Rescue bootable images. And a portable cross platform encryption tool just in case.

Can you give us some names? Sounds intriguing
