YUMI – MULTIBOOT USB CREATOR

YUMI (Your Universal Multiboot Integrator), is the successor to our MultibootISOs. It can be used to create a Multiboot USB Flash Drive containing multiple operating systems, antivirus utilities, disc cloning, diagnostic tools, and more. Contrary to MultiBootISOs which used grub to boot ISO files directly from USB, YUMI uses syslinux to boot extracted distributions stored on the USB device, and reverts to using grub to Boot Multiple ISO files from USB, if necessary.

Aside from a few distributions, all files are stored within the Multiboot or yumi folder (depending on version), making for a nicely organized Multiboot USB Drive that can still be used for other storage purposes.

Important Note: YUMI was intended to be used to try to run various "LIVE Linux" Operating Systems from USB. Installing Linux from the YUMI created USB Drive to a Hard Drive is not officially supported. If the installer portion of any Live Linux distro does work, consider it a bonus.

Creating a YUMI Multiboot MultiSystem Bootable USB Flash Drive
YUMI works much like Universal USB Installer, except it can be used to install more than one distribution to run Live from your USB. Distributions can also be uninstalled using the same tool!

PLEASE READ: Syslinux 6+ is used in >YUMI 2.0.0.7. Distributions installed with a previous YUMI version are not compatible. You must start with a freshly formatted USB. If you still experience missing com32/chain32 errors with freshly formatted USB using the latest YUMI revision, please report them.

Note: As I find time, I am rewriting YUMI for Linux, so the Linux YUMI tool will dramatically change once it is finished.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Your USB drive must be Fat16/Fat32/NTFS formatted, otherwise Syslinux will fail and your drive will NOT Boot. NTFS is buggy, and data may become corrupted if you use it!
Basic Essentials to create a MultiSystem Bootable USB Drive

• Fat32 or *NTFS Formatted USB Flash or USB Hard Drive
• PC that can boot from USB
• Windows XP/Vista/7/8 or Ubuntu/Debian for the Linux version of YUMI to create the Bootable USB
• YUMI-2.0.1.9.exe
• Your selection of ISO Files

Please inform me of unlisted "FREE" Live Linux distributions or version revisions, and I will attempt to update YUMI to support them. Software developers who wish to have their "PAID" software added, can send me a copy to try.
