Good evening All
I know some people just like a challenge. Who will use the result, though
I wonder if ventoy would achieve a similar result
There is a 32MB partition for efi; and the rest, which for me at present is:
ls /media/keith/Ventoy/
apps linuxmint-21.3-cinnamon-64bit-beta.iso
configfiles lmde-6-cinnamon-64bit.iso
debian-live-12.4.0-amd64-cinnamon.iso
manjaro-cinnamon-23.0.1-230921-linux65.iso
debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso Win10_22H2_EnglishInternational_x64v1.iso
kali-linux-2023.4-installer-purple-amd64.iso
keith@lenv0 $
the iso's are just copied onto the main partition.
apps/ is my daily drivers that I keep on a separate partition. Things
like firefox & thunderbird dev editions and a few appImages
configfiles/: .bashrc, _history _aliases data for espanso
I boot to the USB and am offered the list of iso's to start, just like
grubb on a multI boot system. click the iso I want
I imagine that the subsequent iso's could be opened after you boot from
the first iso.
Next project - get the iso to retain any changes I make
All the best

I thought it'd be a nice idea to combine any and all distribution media

creating my USB drive by extracting the first DVD to it, thereby
ensuring the boot block and boot material is where it should be. But
then what do I do with the additional media?

Maybe put a copy of a Debian mirror onto another partition.
