Create Multiple ISO Files In One Bootable USB
Disk
There
are many operating systems available in the market, either free or paid. Each
is having its multiple versions and features. You can’t waste a flash drive for
each of them. It would be great if you put all the ISO files on a flash drive
and make a multiboot USB using. It is a lot easier when a single storage
media houses many ISO files.
You can
put Windows and Linux in the same bootable disk or create a master
installation disk of Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10. This choice is up
to you. Making multiboot USBs can be very helpful for Linux
users who have to deal with various distributions each having its own set
of features.
We need a USB flash drive of considerable size. To stuff three Windows
ISOs in the multiboot USB disk, then we need a 16GB flash drive.
