Problem: A USB stick cannot boot with any of Porteus, the boot-repair LiveUSB, or SystemRescueCD. It used to be bootable with Porteus, and before that it could boot with other Linux LiveUSB distributions.

Solution: Ventoy

A tool for booting multiple distributions from a USB stick. Duh.

Very easy to use. Works under Windows. Does not work under Linux.

A Linux distribution. A Linux system rescue disk.

Note - If you just want to repair your boot loader, try boot-repair.
I'm sure an updated version will use systemd, as Gentoo now does.

Used for preparing a LiveUSB for Linux distributions' .ISO files. Instead of using a CD or DVD, use a USB stick.

Use UNetbootin instead. Although doing the same thing (un7zipping), unetbootin works MUCH faster.

2015-05-14 - DO NOT USE . Whatever process this uses takes motherfucking forever to prepare a USB stick. un7zipping a moderate-sized distribution's ISO is a good 20 minutes and may end up freezing 7zip.
2014-04-24 on Windows 8.1, with Lubuntu 14.04 amd64.
- Does not seem to make a bootable USB stick.
