Making my own working bootable usb drive with my certain iso files?

I've tried Xboot, refus, Sardu and none of them seem to work.

It probably is my fault. Although I know of Xboot the developent is stopped due to the developer having passed away. RIP.

So I got a set of iso files I do not want to burn to CD but instead want to put on my 16GB usb drive to boot from.

When I boot I have indeed changed the boot order to make sure my usb drive boots before windows does.

It is in this order:

cd drive
usb drive
windows 7 64-bit


It would be really awesome to load your own set of tools on a bootable usb instead of having to use haren's cd tools or something like that that has alot of stuff you don't want. :)

Not sure what you are trying to do, but if you want to create a multi boot stick, use Yumi

That looks sweet but it doesn't support macrium reflect or most of the iso files I want to add.

And on the website it says Acronis True Image is supported but in the program it doesn't show up. -_-

You want to create a multi-boot flash drive to boot what?

Macrium Reflect Free

What else?

Avira and comodo rescue disk amongst others. Does it matter if I mention them all? I can't get one of them iso's to boot (that being macrium reflect rescue media) then it means I can't proceed with any other.


So what could be the issue here? I've tried:

—————– Bootable ISOs —————-

Try an Unlisted ISO (SYSLINUX)
Try an Unlisted ISO (GRUB)
Try an Unlisted ISO (GRUB Run from RAM)

now gonna try the last one, see what gives.

Edit:
Which I did just now and no result. When I disable all boot options but the usb boot it doesn't go into windows but this time into the bios. -_-


Does it need to be run as admin? I'm really sure its something silly I'm not following and causing all this disappointment.

Still trying to understand.

I think you want to boot the USB flash drive and have it present a list of programs you can boot, right?

If so, I can't find any that support Macrium ISO.

See if this tutorial by Golden helps:
MACRIUM REFLECT - Create Bootable Rescue USB Drive

EDIT:
I found this old SF thread that may help:
how to create multi-boot USB?

Note: spaces in the ISO filename causes problems.

Here is a pic of a flash drive listing the distros in YUMI
