Official MediCat USB - A Multiboot Linux USB for PC Repair

The problem that I am facing only happens on a small percentage of computers 10% of the computers that I test on and they are a lot.

On those 10 computers my 256 GB flash disk does not work and shows a GRUB error Mini Bash prompt although the same flash disk works normally on others. I noticed that this is related to partition size (Just on those computers) . When I create a fresh ventoy on my large flash disk it gives the same error so I know it is not a MediCate problem it is a ventoy problem. When I burn the image on the flash disk it works normally but as soon as I move the ventoy partition to the end of the disk (even without resizing the 32 GBs partition.

So the problem as I noticed is on some computers only when the ventoy partition is moved to the end of the flash disk.

I repeat it is not a medicat problem and only happen with some computers 10% with the same working large flash disk.

 

The new release looks good and you did a fantastic job with the new boot themes. They look great.

 

Hi,

Does this mean you make the edition as Back End?

 

Hi,

Apologies for noob question.
I dual boot Windows 10 and Ubuntu Gnome, so I want to include both in Medicat. I understand Windows_10_x64_en-UK.iso goes into MediCat\OSimages, but where should I drop ubuntu-20.10-desktop-amd64.iso?
[Edit] MediCat\Boot_an_Operating_System works, please ignore me.

Thank you!

Hi,

In case you missed, MultCloud would help on Upload the files to multiple services.

I use it, count 8 / 15 hours to copy +/- 15Gb.

 

Hello @Jayro,

we have to wait for a new version or we can take MediCat USB v20.10.1?

Thank you

 

@Jayro

Hi,
I've downloaded the 20.10.

Noticed the different structure from 18.10.
Can't find the MediCat/boot.wim, is renamed?

Don't remember any post related.


Thank you.

 

Ouch!

Seen the Active... And the Rescue, not the Mini.


Thank you.

Found an old and forgotten Pen clone with MediCat.

Copy/Pasted the hidden files and the crashed Pen Booted again.
Shut down from Mini10 menu nada again happened.

Previous Workaround didn't work anymore.

So,
I'm testing with backups.

Will download Sardu and save the steps.
Also I'll try the new 20.10, being I have 2 3.0 that would suite 18 and 20.

Thank you.

About injecting Drivers to 18.10 I did some test but none of them work yet.

Used ImageX and end up with 3.40Gb Wim :o

You said about EASY DISM, but it seems I need WAIK files.

Found a way to use the needed files instead of download all the Dev Files, many GB.

So,
I'm still on the research for find out to open the Wim for injecting, find the needed driver files, and open the Wim in live format to change Explorer and other settings.

try using ntlite to inject drivers into the wim file.

 

Thank you.

Yesterday found it and after the post, today tested.


Finally I've been able to manage to add the Drivers keeping an small Wim, 2Gb.

It works, Intel HD 3000 Graphics now load and I can use a comfortable screen.
USB 3.0 has full support.


Still pending to test some other things, and a way to run the Wim as a Live OS, but not sure whether is possible or not.


Thank you!!!

Hi,

Using NTLite, noticed on 18.10, that Languages and Keyboards are still installed.
Also Telemetry enabled.

They are now deleted and disabled and the Mini10 works fine.

Just as a Heads up, in case 20.10 would need the cleaning.
Around 160Mb has been cut.


Thank you.

 

First of all, thanks for this amazing tool Jayro. It's everything I've wanted in a USB tool and then some. I have kind of a weird issue but not a major one. The start menu button doesn't work for me when booting into mini windows 10. I click on it and nothing happens. I've only had it happen on the last 2 releases but I'm not quite sure how to go about fixing it. Again, thanks for all you do Jayro!

Edit: And of course as soon as I posted this, the start menu started working. Ignore. Keep up the great work Jayro!

 

yeah ntlite is a great program, i use it and msmg toolkit to do custom win 10 installs on my computers
