Anything else worth adding to it?

Whatever, its better than mine
All I have is a couple flash drives with YUMI and a various recovery tools

You know that shit's like 500kb, right?

dban is a little over 15MB

Well, you'll need to double down on these. Make sure you have GPT formatted fat32 ones for UEFI machines and MBR formatted NTFS for older machines.
Replace all of your 8GB drives with a 128GB one and just use YUMI to create a multiboot. Why the fuck are they separate?
Also get a micro USB adapter and lightning adapter, helps with clients who have a lack of cables (you can stick those on each other and onto a USB drive to keep them together)
>>53058693
You know you can just use YUMI w/ fat32 and it works on any system, right?
>>53058737
YUMI sucks dick when it comes to booting windows.
>>53058612
8gb is smallest
>>53058693
should i really bother with uefi? i just legacy boot.
>>53058737
i really like the adapter idea though
>>53058397
key chain screwdrivers for opening shit, a memtest usb, and a usb with a small storage capacity for a fat16 usb key to flash the bios.
>>53059061
>should i really bother with uefi? i just legacy boot.
Not everything supports legacy.
Surface Pro 2 and HP Stream 8 are two devices that I know of off hand that only support UEFI (and only 64bit and 32bit respectively)
>>53058397
You should really consider a moisturizer or at least a moisturizing hand soap.
>>53059134
>a memtest usb
I assume that the linux one can double as this
Also, I have a hirens drive and a mri drive. I hardly ever use them and I doubt they work well with newer stuff but they were handy for what they are.
They are also good uses for my <2gb drives.
>>53058757
Correct me if I'm wrong, but unless it's booting uefi, windows won't boot off of a fat32 drive. I was under the impression that mbr boots required ntfs.

you could use xboot to put all that shit on one drive with a graphical boot menu.

Is it impossible to boot them from a single usb mass storage device?
I would have them on its own keychain so I dont look a dungeon master every time I need to unlock something.
>>53059746
but that's the best part.
Also, clip the massive keychain to your belt, so everyone can hear you're coming
>>53058397
Buy burning them in a fire
Never have much use of it but I have one with Tor. Thinking of getting another to hold a private key for my KeePass database.

usb master race bro.
new laptops/desktops are all UEFI, what will we do when legacy is not available??
>>53058397
i've got one zalman drive with virtual cd and it replaces every flash and works as hdd aswell
you are not needed
>>53060006
I have yet to encounter a PC with UEFI that actively blocked shit like F12 for bootoptions, F2 for setup etc.
Not even W8 or W10 does that. Yet.
>>53058397
remixOS or Android x86 just for shits and giggles.
Been thinking about starting my own admin keyring, but so far i can only thing of having GParted, Systemrescue (or Hiren's or something), a full distro install on one drive, and a bootable W7 install disk.
My main problem is trying to source enough flash drives with keyrings on them for cheap. any good sites to buy in bulk?
>>53058397
Where's the 'I have autism' dogtag.
>>53059174
nope. MBR can boot off of FAT32 or NTFS.
UEFI is NTFS only
isoStick(tm) is what I use, much simpler
>>53059724

A SHIT
>>53060165
>nope. MBR can boot off of FAT32 or NTFS.
I said windows. And I know some of my older images require ntfs because they have .wim files greater than 4gb
>UEFI is NTFS only
Nigga you dumb

USB with Reflect rescuemedia (Amazing if a bootsection has fucked up)
USB with PCUnlocker (Only for Windows, but unless the drive is encrypted you can bypass all passwords)
USB with AV and Malware cleanup tools
USB with W7
USB with W8

USB with Ubuntu
USB with Linux Mint
USB with tools (Reflect, different boot media creators etc)
USB with different ISOs for Windows and Linux

I have literally been using live usb linux as main os for the last two years, it works great. I keep a hd on the computer that has a working windows install for whatever might need windows, otherwise shitposting and internet browsing is all done on live usb. I always was interested in getting several isos in one usb. I learned about YUMI last year, I have never heard of any other.
>>53060169
oh shit nigger its $100

Thanks to an anon in another thread, I have discovered DriveDroid. I am eager to give it a shot and see if it works. Android smartphones are cheaper than other existing hardware solutions.
>>53058737
What about Sardu? Ive read it handles this shit better.
>>53060289
eh I do this for a living so it was worth it for me, never had any problems with it either
>>53060339
if you go that route, get a bigass micro SD card, highest speed possible
No wonder people keep asking you to fix their computer. Ask I have in my keychain is a single key.
>>53060339
I don't understand why IMG/ISO files can't be copied to RAM, mounted and then booted up, people who know about this stuff have been discussing it for over 10 years, why can't this be done yet?
>>53060386
Yeah I have UHS1 64gb card available if it works. I'm at work right now and my main phone is lumia 640 so I'll have to wait until I get home to test it. I have an LG Volt with CM on it that I'm hoping works.
>>53060470
There's a way to do it with grub and I think some motherboard (asrock? idk what chip) had it baked into the hardware. I bet it has a lot to do with how a lot of cdimages are coded and how they have static links that look for a physical disk drive instead of dynamic links relative to other files.
>>53058397
Use one 64GB with grub multiboot, add gentoo and a life and stop being retarded
>>53060608
this lel
>>53060608
take your own advice and learn what happens m8
>>53061172
.. it works? If you are not a faggot you know how to configure grub properly.
>>53058397

Get a larger keyring. Get one of these and a carabiner to attach it to one of your belt loop.

DriveDroid most definitely works.
I used it to boot an xubuntu disk one evening after a hard drive crash. It's brilliant and useful as fuck.
>>53060238
Why do you need both mint and ubuntu? They're pretty much the same.
>>53061902
Thank you, my man!
>>53058397
Just get 64GB stick and use Yumi multiboot you absolute raging faggot.

>>53060470
the problem is that typically an operating system kernel, once loaded, will assume the current state of the hardware doesn't matter
for example, a bootup could be something like;
- bios inits basic hardware
- loads bootloader from disk
- bootloader copies kernel into ram, then executes it
- kernel now has complete control over the contents of ram and will often reinitialize any hardware it wants to use (to get things into a fresh/known state)
see the problem? for an iso to run out of ram, it would need to be implemented by the bios, that is, it would need to section off part of the system memory so the os can't see it, and emulate a disc drive of some kind on its own, seperate to the os
>>53062017
-- also note, this doesn't stop you from running a system entirely from ram /if the os supports it/, that is, you can
- boot the kernel
- have it load an iso or rootfs image into ram
- mount/use that from there
many livecds do this or have an option for it (allows you to remove the disc/usb drive once it's loaded)
Hi OP you sound like you're good with the ladies.

it's pretty chill. Can boot win 10 with UEFI, have to change to legacy when I need other tools.
can't see any reason to carry around like 10 usb's on my chain when I can do all I need with one.
Got win7, win8.1, El Capitan usb's available at my workplace in some drawer when I need it.

Why not buy only one big USB key and multipart them .... That's what I've done. Got windows 2003 server / 7 / 8 + DamnSmallLinux + backtrack + GnuPartedLive + Debian + one random recovery partition tool I don't remember the name of
All of this in one single key ....
>>53064219
Not a bad idea, but you're still using them old tools?
Backtrack, really? 2003 server? it's 13 years ago now.
Also, it's all on one key on yumi as well.

>>53064262
Yeah backtrack is getting old, but I have very little use for it. Maybe one day I'll move on to Kali.
And also I still have a live custom version of 2003 server because this windows is actually pretty fucking light once you removed bloats and useless services. And my "arcade pc" which is burried behind sticks and homemade booth has been running on a windows arium / 2003 for 10 years by now.
Also forgot I added rEFInd on it recently.
Not OP but so Yumi can help me make an installation iso for Windows 7, Windows 10, Rescue ISO, and a LiveUSB or full installation of a linux distro ?
