    @geniusmusing #Ventoy is surprisingly good. I've used it a couple of times already. But recently, I was using it on the new Armbian installation on the #Orange_Pi_5 and ran into an issue:

    * It sets up the flash drive using ExFAT as the file system. The instructions say you can change it later, but I never found that option.
    * The current set of OS installable programs (Armbian, but I presume Debian / Devuan / Ubuntu / Mint will be the same) does not include a version of mount that handles exfat. That was in the now-deprecated older package.
    * Turns out that Ventoy has a binary executable that I was able to copy into my path and use, so now S will receive a USB flash drive with 3 live distros (Debian, Ubuntu Desktop, CentOS Stream) and one direct installer (Ubuntu Server) on it.

    I was tempted to add ReactOS, just so she'd see the difference between trying to clone a proprietary system without being sued is versus writing as desired. But I know she's just doing this so she'll have a passing familiarity and be able to check that box on some HR department's screening software's checklist. #ReactOS certainly will not help there.
