Creating multiboot USB containing multiple OS, antivirus utilities and more

This is a tutorial of creating multiboot flash drive using YUMI software. You can also try software like XBOOT, UNetbootin.

Creating multiboot USB drive is really useful to have various OS, antivirus utilities,diagnostic tools and more in single flash drive. Also we can create multiboot CD/DVD but USB is small in size so it is easy to carry and we can easily install/uninstall distributions from USB.

So let's start to create Multiboot USB ?

You required following things to make Multiboot USB :
  1. Pen drive/Flash drive (Better to use pen drive having capacity more than 2 GB)
  2. ISOs/Distributions of OS (If you doesn't have ISO of OS then you can easily download it by taking help of YUMI tool)
  3. And YUMI (Your Universal Multiboot Installer) software. Download YUMI software from here.

Create Multiboot USB with YUMI software :

Run YUMI software and click on "I Agree" button if you agree with their License Agreement.

Select your pen drive letter from drop down list. Before going to next step make it sure that you have chosen right drive. If you want to format your pen drive then click on check box of format drive.

Select Distribution of OS you wish to put on your USB. If you doesn't have ISO of OS then click on check box of Download the iso.

If Distribution and YUMI software is in same folder then it will automatically detect distribution, otherwise browse to ISO.

After all you can click on Create button. Clicking on create button will show you a how yumi will work and ask you to click yes to perform action and no to abort. Click on yes if you want to perform action.

wait to complete process. After completing process YUMI will ask you for installing more OS or not, if not then close it.

Now you have a multiboot USB. 

To use OS from USB. Go to boot menu and change priority to Flash Drive then save it. After reboot you will get multiboot menu like below in image :
