On Debian’s website it is saying to write the image to the USB stick I should use a bash script "# cp Debian.iso /dev/sdX

sync"

Is there another way to do this without using root access?

    The binary blobs match which checksums? The ones provided by the ventoy developer?

    GLIM is an alternative that’s much simpler (it just uses Grub configs) so it is easy to audit:

      Yeah when you build from source you gotta dl some blobs from busybox and some other projects. It works fine with the ones the developer claims their build is based off of, the ones whose checksums are listed in the docs and match what you get when you ask for them from the repos for the aforementioned busybox or whatever.

      I haven’t pulled apart a binary release of ventoy to check and see if it actually has those documented blobs or something else.

      I’ll look at glim. Might be cool.

      This sounds like it only boots Linux ISOs? I kinda need the ability to boot all kinds of images, only some of them Linux based.
