Do not use the broken install.wim from the created USB-Stick !!). Now, use 7zip (apt-get install p7zip) to extract the ISO (it is enough to extract the install.wim file. At least UNetbooin creates a bootable USB-Stick. Unfortunately there will be no message, that it truncated the install.wim (in case it is larger than 4G). Use UNetbootin to create an USB-Stick from the Windows ISO. This is the way under Linux (in my case Ubuntu Bionic). None of the other options like Rufus etc do not work or no longer supported.įor all the poor Linux admins without a Windows computer like me, who need to help relatives installing Windows 10 (sigh). The iso file size is greater than 4GB which means the files have to be split. In addition, Ventoy provides Legacy and UEFI Secure Boot support, supports ISO files larger than 4GB, and can be updated without reformatting the USB device.I am using Ubuntu 21.04 and have found a suggested method from Stackexchange - see below.

The application is available for Microsoft Windows and Linux.
You can also continue using the USB stick for other things, and it will continue to work as a bootable USB. You install this tool to a USB drive, then simply copy some ISO files to the USB drive, and you can boot from it with no other changes (so without having to reformat the USB drive every time you want to create a bootable USB drive, and without having to extract the ISO file contents). After reading this tutorial you’ll know how to create within a minute a multiboot USB containing multiple operating systems such as different Linux distributions or Microsoft Windows. In this tutorial we will explains how to create a multiboot USB in Windows in which you just need to copy any ISO you want to boot. With Ventoy, you don’t need to format the USB drive for each new installation, you just need to copy the ISO file to the USB drive and boot it.
