Ventoy is a free and open-source utility used for creating bootable USB media storage devices with files such as .iso, .wim, .img, .vhd(x), and .efi. Once Ventoy is installed onto a USB drive, there is no need to reformat the USB drive to add new installation files. Instead, it is enough to copy .iso, .wim, .img, .vhd(x), or .efi file(s) to the ...
Docker is a set of platform as a service (PaaS) products that use OS-level virtualization to deliver software in packages called containers. [5] The service has both free and premium tiers. The software that hosts the containers is called Docker Engine. [6] It was first released in 2013 and is developed by Docker, Inc. [7]
Container Linux provides no package manager as a way for distributing payload applications, requiring instead all applications to run inside their containers. Serving as a single control host, a Container Linux instance uses the underlying operating-system-level virtualization features of the Linux kernel to create and configure multiple containers that perform as isolated Linux systems.
The OCI organization includes the development of runc, which is the reference implementation of the runtime-spec, [7] [8] a container runtime that implements their specification and serves as a basis for other higher-level tools. runc was first released in July 2015 as version 0.0.1 [9] and it reached version 1.0.0 on June 22, 2021.
Unraid utilizes Docker to allow users to create and manage Docker containers to host applications on the system. In doing so, this allows Unraid users to host applications that may not support the Unraid operating system directly, could be difficult to install & remove, or may not behave correctly with other applications running on the same system.
Multiboot" means that the tool allows multiple systems on the USB stick, as well as a bootloader on the USB flash drive to choose which system to load at boot time. Multiboot is environmental technology since it requires only a single storage device to boot multiple files.
The first stage of PC boot loaders (FSBL, first-stage boot loader) located on fixed disks and removable drives must fit into the first 446 bytes of the master boot record in order to leave room for the default 64-byte partition table with four partition entries and the two-byte boot signature, which the BIOS requires for a proper boot loader ...
A bootable device can be storage devices like floppy disk, CD-ROM, USB flash drive, a partition on a hard disk (where a hard disk stores multiple OS, e.g Windows and Fedora), a storage device on local network, etc. [7] A hard disk to boot Linux stores the Master Boot Record (MBR), which contains the first-stage/primary bootloader in order to be ...
