Update 11/2021

There is now a very cool tool to boot ISO images from USB Sticks:  https://www.ventoy.net/en/index.html 

"Ventoy is an open source tool to create bootable USB drive for ISO/WIM/IMG/VHD(x)/EFI files.
With ventoy, you don't need to format the disk over and over, you just need to copy the ISO/WIM/IMG/VHD(x)/EFI files to the USB drive and boot them directly.
 You can copy many files at a time and ventoy will give you a boot menu to select them.
 x86 Legacy BIOS, IA32 UEFI, x86_64 UEFI, ARM64 UEFI and MIPS64EL UEFI are supported in the same way.
Most type of OS supported (Windows/WinPE/Linux/ChromeOS/Unix/VMware/Xen...) "

Just copy the ISO images to the USB stick and boot the USB stick.

Some of the very useful features of Ventoy are:
(see the Ventoy documentation for details and more)

In addition you can create multiple paritions on the USB stick with other bootable OS or data . For example the partitions onmy current Rescue USB stick looks like this:

[xtrnaw7@t540p ~]$ df -h | grep sdd
/dev/sdd10             5.0G  4.4G  655M  88% /run/media/xtrnaw7/KNOPPIX
/dev/sdd3              5.0G  1.9G  3.2G  38% /run/media/xtrnaw7/GRUB4DOS
/dev/sdd8               20G  653M   18G   4% /run/media/xtrnaw7/linuxdata
/dev/sdd9              4.9G   10M  4.6G   1% /run/media/xtrnaw7/develop
/dev/sdd6               20G   19G  499M  98% /run/media/xtrnaw7/archolinux
/dev/sdd7               20G  8.1G   11G  44% /run/media/xtrnaw7/blackarch
/dev/sdd1              105G   61G   45G  58% /run/media/xtrnaw7/Ventoy
/dev/sdd5               30G   14G   15G  48% /run/media/xtrnaw7/fedora
[xtrnaw7@t540p ~]$

The partitions archolinux, blackarch, and fedora contain bootable Linux installations. The partition GRUB4DOS contains the grub4dos bootloader and the partition KNOPPIX contains a copy of the KNOPPIX DVD.
The partition develop is used  for testing, the partition linuxdata (formated with ext3) is for Linux data files, and the partition Ventoy is a vfat formated partition with the bootable ISO images and other data files

The partition for KNOPPIX is only neccessary because the vfat filesystem on the partition Ventoy does not support files bigger then 4 GB (the KNOPPIX DVD uses about 4.4 GB ). vfat is neccessary  to read the USB stick also in non-Linux OSes.

The boot menus on the USB Rescue stick with Ventoy now look like this:

Introduction


This is the documentation for my 128 GB USB stick with a collection of various rescue tools for x86 PCs. The rescue tools are mainly Linux Images but Solaris Images (Milax, SmartOS, Solaris 10 and Solaris 11), two Windows XP images and a Windows 7 x64 Maintenance image are also included. There are also some binaries for Linux and Windows on the first partition of the USB stick that can be used without booting the USB stick.

All images can be booted from the USB stick. In addition, most of the ISO images used to create the partitions on the USB stick are also on the USB stick.

Note that the USB stick also contains some tools for Solaris SPARC.

Notes:

/dev/sdb is used as device for the USB stick in Linux in this documentation. The device used for the USB stick on your machine may be different.


Please be aware that this page is only for documentation . But you can create your own Rescue USB stick using the hints and HowTos documented here.

Files and directories on the partition /dev/sdb1


/dev/sdb1 is a FAT formated primary partition for data (for all Operating systems).

Note:

This is the only partition that is visible in Windows.

Files and directories on the partition /dev/sdb2


The partition 2 is used for the Solaris installations (Milax, Solaris 10, and Solaris 11). Please ignore this partition in all non-Solaris Operating systems.

Be aware that Linux creates devices for the Solaris slices on /dev/sdb2 :


[266037.981868] sd 36:0:0:0: [sdb] Write cache: disabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA
[266038.019867]  sdb: sdb1 sdb2 sdb3 sdb4 < sdb5 sdb6 sdb7 sdb8 sdb9 sdb10 sdb11 sdb12 sdb13 sdb14 sdb15 sdb16 sdb17 sdb18 sdb19 sdb20 sdb21 sdb22 sdb23 sdb24 sdb25 sdb26 >
 sdb2: <solaris: [s0] sdb27 [s1] sdb28 [s2] sdb29 [s3] sdb30 [s4] sdb31 [s8] sdb32 [s9] sdb33 >

But due to the missing UFS drivers in Linux these devices  (sdb27 to sdb33 in the example above) are not usable in Linux.



Boot partitions and ISO files on the USB Stick


Note:

The keyboard layout for most ISO images is US. To change the keyboard layout to German use "setxkbmap de" while in a terminal .

To become root in mostly all Live Linux image use " sudo su -", the root passwords for the images listed in the table below (if required).

Note:

Some of the live images (see here) can boot direct from the ISO image using an grub4dos entry like this:

title Windows 7 64 Bit Maintenance ISO image
  map (hd0,0)/iso/Win7PESE_x64.ISO (hd32)
  map --hook
  root (hd32)
  chainloader (hd32)
  boot

Using an ISO boot you do not need space for an additional partition but you can not change the default boot options for the image then.
Be aware that an ISO image must be in a continuous area on the USB stick to use it for booting.

Boot Manager

The boot manager used for the master boot record of the USB stick is grub4dos.

The main menu file for the boot manager grub4dos is ./menu.lst.
Other menu files for grub4dos are: cdimages.lst, smartos.lst, solaris10.lst, and harddisk.lst.

The grub4dos boot manager menu is password protected.

In each partition is a separate boot manager installed; for the boot manager used on the separate partitions see the table above.


Virtual Machine Software


Various versions of Qemu for Windows are installed on the USB stick:  ./bin/windows/qemu/.

Qemu for Linux 32 Bit is "installed" on the USB stick: ./bin/linux32/qemu/

Qemu for Linux 64 Bit is "installed" on the USB stick: ./bin/linux64/qemu/

Qemu for Solaris x86 is also installed on the USB stick:  ./bin/sol_x86

The SmartOS image contains kvm for running virtual machines.

For testing purpose the USB stick can also be booted in a Virtual machine, example

sudo qemu-system-x86_64  -net nic -net user -hda /dev/sdb -m 4g  -sdl -k de

or (using this command the mouse does NOT work in Solaris)

sudo qemu-system-x86_64  -net nic -net user -hda /dev/sdb -m 4g -k de -display vnc=:2 -usb -usbdevice tablet

If the X Server does not work in a live image add the qemu parameter -vga vmware.

Note:

In VMWare or VirtualBox it's more difficult to use a physical device for virtual machines therefor I prefer qemu or kvm for testing.


Howtos



How to create a new partition on the USB stick


Because of the "hidden" devices for the Solaris slices (see here) you MUST use this approach to create new partitions :

  1. use fdisk to create the new partition(s)
  2.  umount all (!) partitions from the USB stick
  3.  physically detach the USB stick (!)
  4.   reattach the USB stick

Now you can create filesystems on the new partition(s), copy files, etc.


How to install a boot manager in one of the partitions



Most ISO images use the boot manager syslinux. To install the syslinux boot manager into a partition use (in Linux!):

syslinux /dev/sdb<partition_number>

Then change to the directory with the mounted partition and rename the directory isolinux to syslinux and the file isolinux.cfg to syslinux.cfg.


That's it ... in some cases the syslinux files in the ISO image do not match the installed syslinux boot manager; in this case just copy the syslinux files from the running Linux.


To install another boot manager in one of the partitions you might use the Windows binary bootice. If you do not have a Windows installation for executing bootice you can use the Windows image on the USB Rescue stick:

- boot the USB Rescue Stick in qemu:

sudo qemu-system-x86_64  -hda /dev/sdb  -net user -net nic -m 2g -k de -boot c -enable-kvm -usb

- select one of the boot menue entries for Windows XP or Windows 7

- in Windows then change to the directory c:\bin\windows\usb_tools and execute "bootice". Now you can use bootice to write a specific boot manager to one or ore more of the partitions:




How to add an image that uses syslinux


To copy a ISO image or CDROM using syslinux to the USB stick do

- create a new partition on the USB stick and change the partition type to 0b (W95 FAT32) ( Caution: Read this first)

- create a FAT filesystem on the new partition (mkfs.vfat -n <volname> <partition>)

- copy all files from the ISO image or CDROM to the new partition

- configure syslinux on the new partition if not already included in the the ISO image:

    - rename the directory /isolinux to /syslinux

    - rename the file isolinux.cfg to syslinux.cfg

    - rename the file isolinux.bin to syslinux.bin

    - Then install syslinux into the MBR of the new partition using

        syslinux --install /dev/sdb<no>

      e.g

        syslinux --install /dev/sdb5

Last add an entry for the new partition to the grub4dos config file menu.lst.

How to boot from another partition in grub4dos


Create a unique signature file on the partition, e.g.

mount /dev/sdb17 /mnt
touch /mnt/puppy.sig
umount /mnt

Then use an entry like this in the grub4dos config file menu.lst:

(do NOT use fixed partition names -- use signature files instead)

title Puppy\nPuppy 5.6
#  root (hd0,6) 
  find --set-root /puppy.sig
  kernel /vmlinuz pmedia=atahd psubdir=/ cpkeys=de-latin1
  initrd /initrd.gz


How to chainroot from grub4dos to a boot loader in a partition


Create a unique signature file on the partition, e.g.

mount /dev/sdb20 /mnt
touch /mnt/backtrack.sig
umount /mnt


Then use an entry like this in the grub4dos config file menu.lst:

title BackTrack Linux\nBack Track 5R3 64Bit Gnome
  find --set-root /backtrack.sig
  map +1 (fd0)
  map --hook
  root (fd0)
  chainloader +1
  boot

Note:

You must install the neccessary boot loader in the partition (/dev/sdb20 in this example), of course.

How to chainroot to an ISO image file


Use an entry like this in the grub4dos config file menu.lst:

title Ultimate Boot CD ISO
fallback 8
find --set-root /iso/ubcd511.iso
map /iso/ubcd511.iso (0xff) || map --mem /iso/ubcd511.iso (0xff)
map --hook
chainloader (0xff)
savedefault --wait=2


Note:  Booting from an ISO image does only work if the booted OS uses only interrupt calls to read from the boot device!


How to add another Casper using boot image


"Casper is a hook for initramfs-tools used to generate an initramfs capable to boot live systems
 as those created by make-live" (see the man page for casper)

Casper is for example used for Live Images based on Ubuntu.

Unfortunately Casper does not work correct out of the box on USB sticks if there are more than one partition using Casper on the same medium. Therefor some additional steps are necessary to make Casper work.

First copy the image to the USB stick and  add the partition with the Live Image to the menu.lst file.

Then correct the live Image on the USB stick (in this example we assume the image is on the partition /dev/sdb20)

mount /dev/sdb20 /mnt
cd /mnt

# rename the directory casper to another unique name (unique = not used for other images using Casper on the medium).

mv casper casperbt

and correct the syslinux.cfg file entries:

cd /mnt/syslinux

mv syslinux.cfg syslinux.org

sed -e "s#/casper/#/casperbt/#" -e "s#boot=casper#boot=casper live-media-path=/casperbt#g"  syslinux.org >syslinux.cfg

umount /mnt

syslinux -i /dev/sdb20

Notes:

Do not change the value for the keyword boot - this MUST be casper.

If the Live Linux image uses include files in the main config file you must also change "casper" to the new name ("casperbt" in this example) in the include files!

Other useful parameter for the initrd statement in syslinux.cfg are:

locales=de_DE.UTF-8 keyboard-layouts=de  keyboard-variants=de_nodeadkeys toram

To activate debugging add the following parameter after boot=live

debug debug=y

Now debug messages are written to the file /run/initramfs/initramfs.debug (debug activates the debug logging and debug=y activates a "set -x" for all init scripts).

 

How to add another live-initramfs using boot image

"live-initramfs is a hook for the initramfs-tools, used to generate a initramfs
capable to boot live systems, such as those created by live-helper(7).
This includes the Debian Live isos, netboot tarballs, and usb stick images.

At boot time it will look for a (read-only) media containing a "/live"
directory where a root filesystems (often a compressed filesystem image like squashfs) is stored. If found, it will create a writable
environment, using aufs, for Debian like systems to boot from.

live-initramfs is a fork of casper.
casper was originally written by Tollef Fog Heen <tfheen@canonical.com>
and Matt Zimmerman <mdz@canonical.com>."
(see the manpage for live-initramfs)

live-initramfs is used for a lot of Linux Live distributions.

Unfortunately live-initramfs (like Casper) does not work correct out of the box on USB sticks if there are more than one partition using live-initramfs on the same medium. Therefor some additional steps are necessary to make live-initramfs work.

First copy the image to the USB stick and  add the partition with the Live Image to the menu.lst file.

Then correct the live Image on the USB stick (in this example we assume the image is on the partition /dev/sdb23)

mount /dev/sdb23 /mnt
cd /mnt

# rename the directory live to another unique name (unique = not used for other images using live-initramfs on the medium).

mv live gparted

and correct the syslinux.cfg file entries:

# if there is only a directory called isolinux rename that directory to syslinux:

mv isolinux syslinux

cd syslinux

# note: if only a file called isolinux.cfg exists copy this file to syslinux.cfg first

cp isolinux.cfg syslinux.cfg

mv syslinux.cfg syslinux.org

sed -e "s#/live/#/gparted/#" -e "s#boot=live#boot=live live-media-path=/gparted#g"  syslinux.org >syslinux.cfg

umount /mnt

syslinux -i /dev/sdb23


Notes:

Do not change the value for the keyword boot - this MUST be live.

If the Live Linux image uses include files in the main config file you must also change "live" to the new name ("gparted" in this example) in the include files!

Other useful parameter for the initrd statement in syslinux.cfg are:

locales=de_DE.UTF-8 keyboard-layouts=de  keyboard-variants=de_nodeadkeys toram

To activate debugging add the following parameter after boot=live

debug debug=y

Now debug messages are written to the file /run/initramfs/initramfs.debug (debug activates the debug logging and debug=y activates a "set -x" for all init scripts).

How to add another Knoppix based boot image


To add another Knoppix based image to the USB stick you must change the syslinux config files:


First rename the directory KNOPPIX on the partition to a new name, e.g

mv KNOPPPIX KNOPPIXDVD

Next add the parameter for the KNOPPIX directory to all entries in the syslinux config file:

cd boot
mv isolinux syslinux
cd syslinux
sed "s/initrd=minirt.gz/initrd=minirt.gz knoppix_dir=KNOPPIXDVD /g"  isolinux.cfg>syslinux.cfg


Be aware the initrd on the original KNOPPIX  DVD only supports the first 15 partitions on the harddisk devices for booting!

Unfortunately this is true for most of the other Live images based on KNOPPIX.

Hint: Using the default DE-bootimage, SYSLINUX boots with german
keyboard layout. The '=' letter is located at Shift-0 on this keyboard
(just in case you want to change keyboard and language with lang=us). If
you need to change the keyboard layout later in X, and can't find a
convenient tool in the preferences, use "setxkbmap 'ca(multi)'" in order
to set up a new (multi-language canadian, in this example) keyboard
layout

*) Try "knoppix pci=irqmask=0x0e98" if (you have an old notebook and)
your PS/2 mouse doesn't work, Possibly caused by a BIOS-flaw on your
board, BIOS updates can sometimes help.

If your KNOPPIX CD produces strange noises during boot, or you see
frequent errors like "cloop: read error", or programs on your desktop
are crashing randomly, then your CD image is probably defective or
incomplete, or your CD-burner created a defective CD due to wrong
writing speed or bad media. This is actually the most common error
reported. Please boot with "knoppix testcd" to check if the CD or DVD is
OK. Installing and starting Knoppix from flash disk is recommended and
much faster than running from CD or DVD.

In case of a failing hardware autodetection, try booting with any of
the "no-" options as shown in the table above, like in
   knoppix nodrm nomodeset no3d noaudio noapm noapic nolapic
           acpi=off pci=bios pnpbios=off nodma nopcmcia noscsi nousb ...
to skip some critical parts of the autodetection system.

The "noswap" and/or "forensic" boot option is useful for a forensic
analysis without touching existing swap partitions.

Some Boards apparently don't pass the proper memory size to the
linux-kernel. It may cause the message "Panic: cannot mount root file
system" and the system hangs. Use "knoppix mem=512M" to solve that
problem if your system has 512MByte memory for example (caution:
you MUST use a capital "M" here).

When installing to read/write media, such as flash disks (using
flash-knoppix), you can add a swap file in order to replace missing
physical RAM by persistent storage space. You can create this swap
file like this from the running system:
  dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt-system/KNOPPIX/knoppix.swp
  mkswap /mnt-system/KNOPPIX/knoppix.swp
  swapon /mnt-system/KNOPPIX/knoppix.swp
Please be aware that swapping on flash media can be painfully slow, and
is no perfect replacement for real RAM. The zram ram-compression feature
(available from Knoppix 7.0.1) can extend the usable ram range to a
certain degree.

---

If you need additional modules for starting controllers needed at boot
time, just copy the corresponding *.ko files from /lib/modules/* over to
/modules in the initial ramdisk (remaster needed).

If you place an update*.zip or update*tar.gz file on the medium holding
the KNOPPIX data, it will be unpacked onto the overlayed filesystem
before starting "init", thus allowing quick reconfiguration of the
system.

The file "knoppix.sh", if residing in the main KNOPPIX directory, will
be execuded after autoconfiguration and before starting the graphical
desktop. It can be used in order to start additional services.

If you wish to remaster the CD, please don't forget to specify
    -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table \
    -b boot/isolinux/isolinux.bin -c boot/isolinux/boot.cat
as option to mkisofs. Otherwise your CD or DVD won't be bootable. The
directory KNOPPIX, containig the compressed filesystem file "KNOPPIX",
must be located in the top level directory of the CD.

Caution: X-Screensaver: Don't start xlock or any screensaver that
requires a password. There are no default passwords on KNOPPIX,
i.e. all accounts are LOCKED unless you explicitly set a password.
See also README_Security.txt about this issue.
If you accidentially hit the screensaver button in KDE,
switch to one of the textconsoles by Control-Alt-F1 and kill
the screensaver (or just set a password for the knoppix user).

If you would like to edit your X-Server configuration manually
(config file /etc/X11/xorg.conf), use "knoppix 2" to boot
into runlevel 2 (textmode only) and, after changing the X
configuration, start the X environment with "init 5". Note that
you can always leave the graphical environment with "init 2", and
restart it later with "init 5".
