• eBook #4: UEFI-multiboot using the a1ive grub2 File Manager (agFM) How to use the Legacy\UEFI grub2 based boot manager developed by a1ive to directly Secure UEFI-boot from payloads (e.g. ISO/VHD/EFI/IMG files) without needing to create .imgPTN files in most cases. agFM can also switch-in .imgPTN files from a UEFI-boot or restore the original partitions – no need to boot to WinPE or Windows. agFM can also switch in ‘official Ventoy’ image partitions which allows you to boot to the latest Ventoy version in any one of three different modes (non-Secure, Secure Boot or via Kaspersky Secure Boot shim). Includes instructions on how to modify and recompile Ventoy to run on an Easy2Boot or other USB drives.

Includes downloads for many different Ventoy Themes and ventoy.json files, etc. This eBook can be used with official Ventoy USB drives or with ‘Ventoy for Easy2Boot’ which is included with E2B. (Amazon Kindle version here) – includes details on how to prevent the Ventoy version string from being displayed on the menu\theme. You can add E2B to a Ventoy USB drive and then take advantage of additional E2B features (e.g. SDI_CHOCO out-install of Windows+drivers+apps, bypass Windows account password, install XP/Win98, boot to FreeDOS with NTFS support, etc.).

Another great eBook from Steve
All of your eBooks are worth it. You take the time to go into great detail about everything and this eBook had the same amount of care and detail put in. Also I like the fact that I can get updated versions as they come out.

Review for Getting started with Ventoy v1.08 (for Ventoy 1.0.71)
Very organized
Very well written and explained.

Martin: And again a helpful eBook.

forrhum: Good book but Ventoy is still a little young technology. Everything is clearly explained. Good exercises.

Richard: Steve is a very experienced professional in this field and provides good explanations of Ventoy along with many, many useful practical hints and tips. 4 Stars (and not 5) because of there is some room for improvement on structure and redundancy of provided information for readers who a not Newcomers in that field.

I purchased all three of your eBooks this morning and I'm so glad I did, it was the best $20 I spent in quite some time. I have been using E2B for many years and have been having a hard time trying to get a handle on having Win10XPE secure boot on my E2B sticks. The How to make a UEFI multi-boot Easy2Boot eBook and a few hours of reading and testing and I have already reached my goal. I can't even begin to guess how many hours I've wasted reading and testing various methods out there in the wild, Your book is just a wealth of the right information and along with the sample downloads, it doesn't get any better.
Thank you!

Hi,
I tried easy2boot for some months right now. And i have to say that i never had a such stable and flexible solution like this. I decided to buy the ebooks and do a little donation because i want to support and thank the developer who deploys e2b for free.
What i liked most was the integration of unattended Windows Installations with sdi_choco. With XMtoE2b it was quite easy to create an xml file for the Windows Installation itself. With sdi_choco it is very easy to create your own configuration presets with those apps you like for example for different customers.
I have to say that E2Boot is no tool you setup without reading the manual. But everything is well documented and if you know how it works it is easy to use.
The ebooks are definitely worth buying them because everything is explained in detailed Exercises so you get better into the topic.
I use E2Boot on my Corsair Survivor with 256 GB and now I can carry all my Live systems and portable tools with me.
Thank you very much and keep on the good work.
