In this article, we’ll show you how to create a YUMI multiboot USB drive and how to use it to install multiple operating systems and utilities.
What you’ll need:
– A USB drive with at least 8 GB of storage.
– YUMI software, which you can download from the official website.
Step 1: Download and install YUMI
You can download the latest version of YUMI from the official website. Once downloaded, run the installer and follow the on-screen instructions to install the software on your computer.
Step 2: Choose your USB drive
Connect your USB drive to your computer and launch YUMI. In the first step, “Select Your USB Drive”, make sure that the correct drive letter is selected.
Step 3: Choose the operating systems and utilities
In the second step, “Select the Operating System or Software Distribution”, you will be presented with a list of supported operating systems and utilities. You can use the search bar to find a specific operating system or utility.
Once you’ve selected an operating system or utility, you can configure its settings, such as the version or the amount of space allocated to it.
Step 4: Add multiple operating systems and utilities
Repeat step 3 for each operating system or utility that you want to add to your USB drive. You can add as many as you want, as long as there is enough space on your USB drive.
Step 5: Create the multiboot USB drive
Once you’ve finished selecting your operating systems and utilities, click on the “Create” button. YUMI will start creating your multiboot USB drive, which may take a while depending on the number of operating systems and utilities you selected.
Step 6: Test the USB drive
Once YUMI has finished creating the multiboot USB drive, you can test it by booting from it on a computer. To do this, insert the USB drive into a computer, restart the computer, and then change the boot sequence in the BIOS so that the USB drive is the first device to boot.
If everything went well, you should see the YUMI boot menu, which lists all the operating systems and utilities that you added to the USB drive. Simply select the one you want to use and follow the on-screen instructions.
Conclusion
Creating a YUMI multiboot USB drive is a great way to save time and resources when installing or using different operating systems and utilities. It can be especially handy if you work in IT or if you often need to perform different tasks on different computers. With YUMI, you can quickly and easily create a multiboot USB drive that contains everything you need, without having to carry around multiple DVDs or USB drives.
