    Hi raiko,

    Welcome to SevenForums!

    I can appreciate that it is a lot more convenient and portable to have all the OS's and repair tools on one USB, BUT, if the USB was to become corrupt you would lose everything. I personally would have a seperate USB for each. That way, it is a lot easier to maintain and you would always have the other three working in the case of disaster. Plus, USB's are not big items, they take up very little space, and as you can see, they are not expensive!

    You could of course, go one step further, and have one with all four OS's and tools on, and then one each for the individual OS's and tools. That way you are covered every which way if disaster strikes!

    Just a suggestion.

    I hope this helps!

    Type 03c0. Now press key combination Alt+X and the 03c0 is converted to π.

    I hope this helps!

    It is the way that I would do it in order to cause the least disruption if there was a failure!
