Ventoy json9/27/2023 ![]() ![]() And I was able to expand the dat file, then copy over to the other drive in windows. So, I had to order a second external harddrive, installed ventoy. I could not do an expansion script within the live version, and have bricked windows trying to install linux since first trying linux redhat in 1999 (biggest waste of a month of my life, as I never got the printer or modem working). I tried purging every thing, including kernels, to little space saving avail. I just installed programs on was forced into kernel updates. I filled up a 40 gig hard drive in 2009, on a clean install and format with ubuntu 9 in about 2 years, and I didn't download anything. The other big problem is that git hub only has a 4 gig available. There should be a way to see available size too, but there is not. The other problem is that the casper is buried when using ventoy, unlike a rufus install. I wasn't sure if the json was root or the ventoy (per password plugin video), so I made 2 jason files, one in root and one in ventoy. I still got hung up because of error on the path. Copy the git hub dat into the ventoy folder and also make a text file with the copied lines with a json extension, edit it and save. make a ventoy folder (using file explorer) on the ventoy drive. Plus, the windows method is far easier (as usual) than the linux method: 1. The linux method should be a secondary method for the minority of linux users who wish to create a useful live linux on usb device. The docs totally missed the target audience, windows users. The core reason it makes no sense is that it is written for people already running linux from the hard drive, while running linux off the usb drive target audience is for windows users, totally unfamiliar with linux, who are not yet ready to risk their primary school or office computer for an operating system that doesn't yet offer enough software to replace their legacy windows software. Any help is greatly appreciated.The problem is that the documentation can be read a thousand times and not make any sense. I've changed the user information and product key for obvious reasons. ![]() In WSIM, there are no validation errors, at least. I've seen online that supposedly, you can use autounattend with just the ISO (as in, not by using software like Rufus to mount the ISO to a USB and placing the file in the root of the USB). I'm unsure if this is because it's Windows 11, or if it is perhaps a problem elsewhere. I have not made changes to the ISO aside from adding the autounattend.xml file to the root. This tells me that it does not recognize that ISO as bootable. ![]() The problem is, when booting to that ISO from Ventoy with the autounattend.xml file, it will only load a black screen with a solid console cursor for a few seconds and then return to the Ventoy menu. Aside from automating drive partitioning and install location (which I have omitted from the answer file on purpose), I'm looking to use autounattend and/or sysprep to achieve a fully automated installation process. Previously, however, we would only really embed the product key into the ISO and be forced to go through the rest of the setup process manually. I currently have a flash drive which I purposed into a Ventoy bootloader for the housing of multiple ISOs (as we occasionally still need to load these other operating systems). IoT recently, we are hoping to switch to this OS. Part of this process includes installing an OS, and in the past, we have used Windows 10 Ent. In the company I work for, we occasionally need to build out servers which we sell to clients. ![]()
