Special identifier in ISO name

  • Background

Ventoy has provided Memdisk Mode, GRUB2 Mode, WIMBOOT Mode (Refer the respective links for details)

Perhaps you have to use one of these modes to boot in some special computer or with some special ISO file.
So here Ventoy provides a methods to auto select these special mode to boot an ISO file.

  • Usage

1. If the ISO file name ends with _VTMEMDISK, Ventoy will automatically use Memdisk mode. For example: kolibri_VTMEMDISK.iso
2. If the ISO file name ends with _VTGRUB2, Ventoy will automatically use GRUB2 mode. For example: ubuntu-22.04-desktop-amd64_VTGRUB2.iso
3. If the ISO file name ends with _VTWIMBOOT, Ventoy will automatically use WIMBOOT mode. For example: win11_english_x64_VTWIMBOOT.iso
4. Since Ventoy 1.0.81, if the ISO file name ends with _VTNORMAL, Ventoy will automatically use normal mode to boot it and the Secondary Boot Menu will not be popped anymore.

Notes:
1. The identifier are case-insensitive, for example both _VTGRUB2 and _vtgrub2 are OK.
