Every now and then you have to try multiple NoTouch OS images to find the most suitable for your hardware. Unless you have a PXE boot setup where you can offer multiple images to boot from, the option would be to create a number of USB drives to boot up your test devices with.
Here a multiboot like Ventoy (https://ventoy.net) can help. Just download the tool and use the Ventoy2Disk tool to prep an empty USB stick for you. Then load the .iso s form the NoTouch OS -zip files to the exFAT partition created by the Ventoy2Disk tool like below:
My USB stick was limited in disk space, hence I put only two ISO files, but with a bigger USB stick, I could have easily thrown in a few more ISO files.
Next, put the stick in your test device, configure it to boot from USB, and off you go. Select the NoTouch OS you want to test:
Chose Normal boot:
Then Live boot:
Now you’re ready to go ahead and verify the functionality of the version and kernel!
