Official MediCat USB - A Multiboot Linux USB for PC Repair

[yusuo]

Hi @Jayro I see that I can add a Windows installation to the OSimages folder, wonderful, am I able to add a few Linux Isos to this folder as well. Basically I want to have the option to boot either Kali, Mint and Windows

Yes.

oh hey, MediCat was on LTT:



always fun to see things in the wild

And thanks to the shear amount of traffic bought by LTT, the site started malfunctioning. At least Jayro fixed it all up now.

Matt actually fixed it, as he handles the hosting bit.

What happened to the documentation that used to be on medicatusb site but is no longer as of last week.
WaybackMachine shows how it used to be there: *I can't post the link*

Thanks for building this tool! I used to use the geek squad mri tool, I’ll try this out!

Hi guys ! I discovered this tool not long ago and want to put it on a 256Gb flash drive.
It works fine but once i create new partitions on the flash drive, medicat won't boot, instead i have a grub console, is there a way to have more than 1 partition on a medicat drive ?
Thanks

Why?

I've been a big fan of this project for a long time, was caught so off guard when I heard about it on the WAN show! Jayro is now the most famous person on earth, time to hire a bodyguard

EDIT: "magent" link is misspelled on the site right now

Whoops

@Jayro and team, is there any way that I can obtain a copy of legacy Medicat v18.04? I have the new version but I used v18.04 daily since I started as a PC tech years ago and my dog destroyed the flash drive this past weekend. I built several things to work with that version and I've tried everything under the sun to find the iso for it but have had no luck. All of the past links are dead and the torrents are no longer seeded. I'd hate to have to start from scratch. The web archives failed me too

Thanks,

Hadez

 

[Adamentys]

Why?

Cause i'm a tech and i want to carry just one USB stick. I also want things organized, so 1 partition for medicat, 1 partitions for all my tools and 1 partition for random storage.

So, is there a way to have more than one partition on a medicat drive ?

I believe the old torrents can be found on TPB

Yes, I believe you just have to experiment with the partitioning settings in Ventoy upon creation, to repartition the drive as you like.

While trying to not name the site, when you get there, this is what you search for, and what you'll find.

These are my official torrents for the last 2 old .iso versions.

You can use the partition configuration on ventoy setup.

And then you con copy manually the MediCat files.

Hi,

Currently there are two different versions of the MediCat Installer file "Medicat_Installer.bat".
The content of the files is not the same when I download the file from web page A and from web page B.
Please tell me which file is the correct/current one?

A: https://gbatemp.net/download/medicat-installer-made-by-mon5termatt.37340/
B: https://medicatusb.com/
