3. @pbatard, have you tested it? Yes. The boot.wim mode appears to be over 500MB.

However, some ISO files dont support UEFI mode so booting those files in UEFI will not work. There are many suggestion to use tools which make an ISO bootable with UEFI on a flash disk, however it's not that easy as you can only do that with UEFI-enabled ISO's. By UEFI enabled ISO's I mean that the ISO files contain a BOOT\EFI directory with a EFI bootloader. If Secure Boot is enabled, signature validation of any chain loaded, If the signature validation fails (i.e. Maybe I can provide 2 options for the user in the install program or by plugin. When the user is away again, remove your TPM-exfiltration CPU and place the old one back. Maybe the image does not suport IA32 UEFI! Tried the same ISOs in Easy2Boot and they worked for me. Windows 7 UEFI64 Install - Easy2Boot I found that on modern systems (those not needing legacy boot) that using the GPT boot partition version (UEFI) only is a lot more reliable. @DocAciD I don't have a Lenovo, ThinkPad or a ThinkCentre, Getting the same on TinyCoreLiInux (CorePlus), URL; http://tinycorelinux.net/downloads.html, The ISO must be UEFI-bootable and have a UEFI64 boot file \EFI\BOOT\BOOTX64.EFI This will disable validation policy override, making Secure Book work as desired: it will load only signed files (+ files signed with SHIM MOK key). The only way to make Ventoy boot in secure boot is to enroll the key. Is there a way to force Ventoy to boot in Legacy mode? For instance, it could be that only certain models of PC have this problem with certain specific ISOs. Preventing malicious programs is not the task of secure boot. Even debian is problematic with this laptop. Reboot your computer and select ventoy-delete-key-1.-iso. It was working for hours before finally failing with a non-specific error. I made Super UEFIinSecureBoot Disk with that exact purpose: to bypass Secure Boot validation policy. But of course, it's your choice to pick what you think is best for your users and the above is just one opinion on the matter. By clicking Sign up for GitHub, you agree to our terms of service and When the user select option 1. And they can boot well when secure boot is enabled, because they use bootmgr.efi directly from Windows iso. privacy statement. So that means that Ventoy will need to use a different key indeed. No. Ctrl+i to change boot mode of some ISOs to be more compatible Ctrl+w to use wimboot to boot Windows and WinPE ISOs (e.g. @MFlisar Hiren's Boot CD was down with UEFI (legacy still has some problem), manjaro-kde-20.0-rc3-200422-linux56.iso BOOT And of course, by the same logic, anything unsigned should not boot when Secure Boot is active. So I don't really see how that could be used to solve the specific problem we are being faced with here, because, however you plan to use UEFI:NTFS when Secure Boot is enabled, your target (be it Ventoy or something else) must be Secure Boot signed. This option is enabled by default since 1.0.76. I am getting the same error, and I confirmed that the iso has UEFI support. *far hugh* -> Covid-19 *bg*. Supported / Unsupported ISOs Issue #7 ventoy/Ventoy GitHub But it shouldn't be to the user to do that. So use ctrl+w before selecting the ISO. So if the ISO doesn't support UEFI mode itself, the boot will fail. Ventoy can detect GRUB inside ISO file, parse its configuration file and load its boot elements directly, with "linux" GRUB kernel loading command. [issue]: ventoy can't boot any iso on Dell Inspiron 3558, but can boot In this case, try renaming the efi folder as efixxx, and then see if you get a legacy boot option. Many thanks! BUT with Ventoy 1.0.74 legacy boot from the same ISO I get a black square in centre of menu (USB LED is flashing so appears to load). The only thing that changed is that the " No bootfile found for UEFI!" @pbatard, if that's what what your concern, that could be easily fixed by deleting grubia32.efi and grubx64.efi in /EFI/BOOT, and renaming grubia32_real.efi grubia32.efi, grubx64_real.efi grubx64.efi. fails to find system in /slax, 'Hello System' os can boot successfully with bootx64.efi's machine and show desktop. Also tested on Lenovo IdeaPad 300 16GB OK (UEFI64). Let the user access their computer (fat chance they're going to remove the heatsink and thermal paste to see if their CPU was changed, especially if, as far as they are concerned, no change as occurred and both the computer appearance and behaviour are indistinguishable from usual). However, I'm not sure whether chainloading of shims are allowed, and how it would work if you try to load for example Ubuntu when you already have Fedora's shim loaded. I made a larger MEMZ.img and that runs on Easy2Boot and grubfm in VBOX but it goes wrong booting via Ventoy for some reason. It means that the secure boot solution doesn't work with your machine, so you need to turn off the option, and disable secure boot in the BIOS. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mv6Cbew_y8&t=1m13s. It's the job of Ventoy's custom GRUB to ensure that what is being chainloaded is Secure Boot compliant because that's what users will expect from a trustworthy boot application in a Secure Boot environment. due to UEFI setup password in a corporate laptop which the user don't know. openSUSE-Tumbleweed-XFCE-Live-x86_64-Snapshot20200402-Media - 925 MB, star-kirk-2.1.0-xfce-amd64-live.iso - 518 MB, Porteus-CINNAMON-v5.0rc1-x86_64.iso - 300 MB In Linux, you need to specify the device to install Ventoy which can be a USB drive or local disk. and select the efisys.bin from desktop and save the .iso Now the Minitool.iso should boot into UEFI with Ventoy. However what currently happens is that people who do have Secure Boot enabled will currently not be alerted to these at all. I'll see if I can find some time in the next two weeks to play with your solution, but don't hold your breath. It should be specially noted that, no matter USB drive or local disk, all the data will be lost after install Ventoy, please be very careful. git clone git clone Secure Boot was supported from Ventoy 1.0.07, an option for secure boot is added in Ventoy2Disk.exe/Ventoy2Disk.sh. Keep reading to find out how to do this. To create a USB stick that is compatible with USB 3.0 using the native boot experience of the Windows 10 Technical Preview media (or Windows 8/Windows 8.1), use DiskPart to format the USB stick and set the partition to active, then copy all of the files from inside the ISO . Now there's no need to format the disk again and again or to extract anything-- with Ventoy simply copy the ISO file to the USB drive and boot it. I don't know why. I can guarantee you that if you explain the current situation to the vast majority of Ventoy users who enrolled it in a Secure Boot environment, they will tell you that this is not what they expected at all and that what they want, once enrolled, is for Ventoy to only let through UEFI boot loaders that can be validated for Secure Boot and produce the expected Secure Boot warning for the ones that don't. You can open the ISO in 7zip and look for yourself. ventoy.json should be placed at the 1st partition which has the larger capacity (The partition to store ISO files). Thank you! But, even as I don't actually support the idea that Secure Boot is useless if someone has physical access to the device (that was mostly Steve positing this as a means to justify that not being able to detect Secure Boot breaches on USB media isn't that big a deal), I do believe there currently still exist a bit too many ways to ensure that you can compromise a machine, if you have access to said machine. So any method that allows users to boot their media without having to explicitly disable Secure Boot can be seen as a nice thing to have even if it comes at the price of reducing the overall security of one's computer. Ventoy @ValdikSS, I'm afraid I am fairly busy right now and, technically for me, investing time on this can be seen as going towards helping a "competing" product (since I am the creator of Rufus, though I genuinely don't have a problem with healthy competition and I'm quite happy to direct folks, who've been asking to produce a version of Rufus with multiboot for years, to use Ventoy instead), whereas I could certainly use that time to improve my own software . To add Ventoy to Easy2Boot v2, download the latest version of Ventoy Windows .ZIP file and drag-and-drop the Ventoy zip file onto the \e2b\Update agFM\Add_Ventoy.cmd file on the 2nd agFM partition. You can change the type or just delete the partition. Fedora/Ubuntu/xxx). Sign up for a free GitHub account to open an issue and contact its maintainers and the community. If you have a faulty USB stick, then youre likely to encounter booting issues. The BIOS decides to boot Ventoy in Legacy BIOS mode or in UEFI mode. Is Ventoy checking md5sums and refusing to load an iso that doesn't match or something? It works for me if rename extension to .img - tested on a Lenovo IdeaPad 300. Main Edition Support. Thanks very much for proposing this great OS , tested and added to report. It looks like that version https://github.com/ventoy/Ventoy/releases/tag/v1.0.33 fixes issue with my thinkpad. @adrian15, could you tell us your progress on this? "No bootfile found for UEFI! Maybe the image does not support X64 UEFI For instance, if you download a Windows or Linux ISO, you sure want to find out if someone altered the official bootloader, that was put there by the people who created the ISO, because it might tell you if something was maliciously inserted there. I'm considering two ways for user to select option 1. Now, if Microsoft finally relinquished their abusive policy about not accepting GPLv3 code for Secure Boot signing and Ventoy was updated not to allow unsigned bootloaders when Secure Boot is enabled (i.e. @BxOxSxS Please test these ISO files in Virtual Machine (e.g. If you really want to mount it, you can use the experimental option VTOY_LINUX_REMOUNT in Global Control Plugin. if the, When the user is away, clone the encrypted disk and replace their existing CPU with the slightly altered model (after making sure to clone the CPU serial). Some modern systems are not compatible with Windows 7 UEFI64 (may hang) Passware Kit Forensic , on Legacy mode booting successfully but on UEFI returns to Ventoy. Customizing installed software before installing LM - Linux Mint Forums Option 2: bypass secure boot It . @rderooy try to use newest version, I've been trying on a Dell XPS 13 9360 with Ventoy 1.0.34 UEFI running and Memtest86-4.3.7.iso does not work. My guesd is it does not. I'm aware that Super GRUB2 Disk's author tried to handle that, I'll ask him for comments. Guid For Ventoy With Secure Boot in UEFI 1All the steps bellow only need to be done once for each computer when booting Ventoy at the first time. I would say that it probably makes sense to first see what LoadImage()/StarImage() let through in an SB enabled environment (provided that this is what Ventoy/GRUB uses behind the scenes, which I'm not too sure about), and then decide if it's worth/possible to let users choose to run unsigned bootloaders. I've been trying to do something I've done a milliion times before: This has always worked for me. @ValdikSS, I'm not seeing much being debated, when the link you point to appears to indicate that pretty much everybody is in agreement that loading unsigned kernels from GRUB, in a Secure Boot environment, is a bug (hence why it was reported as such). @chromer030 hello. @ventoy I have tested on laptop Lenovo Ideapad Z570 and Memtest86-4.3.7.iso and ipxe.iso gived same error but with additional information: netboot.xyz-efi.iso (v2.0.17), manjaro-gnome-20.0.3-200606-linux56.iso, Windows10_PLx64_2004.iso worked fine. You can press left or right arrow keys to scroll the menu. Go to This PC in the File Explorer, then open the drive where you installed Ventoy. 1.

So, Fedora has shim that loads only Fedoras files. I'll fix it. relativo a la imagen iso a utilizar Hi, thanks for your repley boot i have same error after menu to start hdclone he's go back to the menu with a black windows saying he's loading the iso file to mem and that it freez. For instance, if you produce digitally signed software for Windows, to ensure that your users can validate that when they run an application, they can tell with certainty whether it comes from you or not, you really don't want someone to install software on the user computer that will suddenly make applications that weren't signed by you look as if they were signed by you. https://abf.openmandriva.org/platforms/cooker/products/4/product_build_lists/3250 Passware.Kit.Forensic.2017.1.1.Win.10-64bit.BootCD.iso - 350 MB Snail LInux , supports UEFI , booting successfully. when the user Secure Boots via MokManager - even when booting signed efi files of Ubuntu or Windows? Agreed. I rarely get any problems with other menu systems based on grub2\grub4dos\syslinux\isolinux, just Ventoy gives problems. Ventoy doesn't load the kernel directly inside the ISO file(e.g. Maybe I can get Ventoy's grub signed with MS key. No boot file found for UEFI (Arch installation) - reddit Happy to be proven wrong, I learned quite a bit from your messages. Ventoy does support Windows 10 and 11 and users can bypass the Windows 11 hardware check when installing. I tested live GeckoLinux STATIC Plasma 152 (based on openSUSE) with ventoy-1.0.15. @ventoy I would also like to point out that I reported the issue as a general remark to help with Ventoy development, after looking at the manner in which Ventoy was addressing the Secure Boot problem (and finding an issue there), rather than as an actual Ventoy user. Already on GitHub? Thanks a lot. But, UEFI:NTFS is not a SHIM and that's actually the reason why it could be signed by Microsoft (once I switched the bootloader license from GPLv3+ to GPLv2+ and rewrote a UEFI driver derived from GPLv2+ code, which I am definitely not happy at all about), because, in a Secure Boot enabled environment, it can not be used to chain load anything that isn't itself Secure Boot signed. Point 4 from Microsoft's official Secure Boot signing requirements states: Code submitted for UEFI signing must not be subject to GPLv3 or any license that purports to give someone the right to demand authorization keys to be able to install modified forms of the code on a device. Yes, I already understood my mistake. Ventoy So, Secure Boot is not required for TPM-based encryption to work correctly.
