Create Bootable USB Installer for Linux via Ventoy [New Solution]

Why Ventoy: Different to other USB creators, you don’t need to format your USB stick again and again to write data from ISO images. With Ventoy, it just format your USB one time, create a small (34 MB in my case) EFI partition, and leave all other spaces free in another partition.
