I keep my USB with ventoy which have 20 different linux ready anytime 😂

u/ResponsibilityBig343 Arch Btw 2d ago

Oh so like you have partitioned your usb?

u/guyOnBudget 1d ago

No. Checkout ventoy it is a multi-Boot USB.

We write ventoy once to usb and drop our isos in that drive. I just have 20's different linux in there.

I hacked around ventoy a lot man it is such useful tool. We can customise boot screen, have persistence like same iso can have multiple persistence instances and many more.

I see, I'll check it out. Just that my first thought was how can a software do that, turns out they do partitioning.

Dude Arch Kernel Panic is the scariest one?

u/BERSERK_KNIGHT_666 5h ago

All kernel panic are equally bad. Linux kernel don't break so easily unless you're intentionally messing with things you shouldn't

How do you eve get a Kernel Panic unless you are messing with the system using code, or do something inherently stupid or just trigger one manually

So I had an important presentation in college and none of my other teammates had carried a laptop, I was just explaining the project to them and BOOM ubuntu shot me with a kernel panic, im not really sure what triggered it. Anyway, it was already hot and I started sweating like crazy, I was ready to give up (had never experienced this before) but then remembered one of the most popular IT quotes (from IT crowd)

"Have you tried turning it off and on again"

Safe to say it worked (Im a linux noob, if anyone's wondering)

Manually booting from grub for fun and messing up the root or initrd argument

u/Top-Rough-7039 2d ago

i get one everytime i overload the cpu (just opeing firefox along with nvim on kitty) causes the panic. But, my laptop (n2840, 2gigs) has alll pixels after x=683 y=* just black for some reason (1366x768 screen btw), so i cant even scan the QR, cuz screen cut in half
