Do it with Ventoy https://www.ventoy.net/en/index.html

Ventoy is great. I have a bunch of useful Windows ISOs like win 10 and 11. I also have a bunch of useless ones like Win XP and 7.

I have many useful Linux ISOs and I also have an Android ISO for some reason.

A great tool 🔥

WinXP isn't compatible with ventoy. At least, it always BSODed for me. Did you have any luck?

[-] lud@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

I haven't actually tried, I honestly mostly use it as ISO storage for VMs.

Where in the process does it BSOD? If it's before you reformat your storage I could try it on my computer, otherwise I won't.

XP installer loads, welcomes me, then dies. For me, at least, it was before I even had an opportunity to enter any information for the installation.

I use ventoy all the time! But not all ISOs are compatible with it, I've found. Fedora, for example, and OpenSuse are not compatible with ventoy.

Wdym? Fedora 38 server and workstation worked fine for me. Might be your drive?

I tried Silbertblue, and it failed. It could be the drive, though. I wouldn't be surprised.
