Installation

You need an USB stick with at least 4GB Space, 8GB are recommended.

  • Partition and format the whole Stick to a single FAT32 Partition with activated boot flag. (gparted or fdsik will do the trick)
  • Unzip the multiboot files to the stick and install grub to the usbstick:

mount /dev/sdX1 /mnt 
tar xfvz /path/to/file/multibootstick_v0.2.tar.gz -C /mnt
grub-install --target=i386-pc --recheck --boot-directory=/mnt/boot /dev/sdX

Customization

You are welcome to customize this System with your own desired .iso files. Simply upload your favourite .iso file to the /boot directory of the stick and add the approprite configuration to the /boot/grub/grub.cfg.

The Arch Wiki has a comprehensive guide on how to configure the grub.cfg for several Linux distros.
