The new USB multiboot solution
Watch also the YouTube video: 'Create Multi Windows USB Installer' by Britec here. U-Labs.de Deutsch anleitung hier.
Recommended USB drive: Removable USB Flash drive - SanDisk Extreme Cruzer 64GB USB 3.0 (note: avoid older versions which may be of the Fixed-disk type).
2. Unzip the Easy2Boot file (e.g. using 7Zip) to a new empty folder on your hard drive (DO NOT EXTRACT E2B DIRECTLY ONTO THE WINDOWS DESKTOP!)
3. Insert the USB drive into your Windows computer's USB port.
4. Use Windows Explorer and in the extracted E2B folder, right-click on
\Make_E2B_USB_Drive (run as admin).cmd
and choose 'Run as Administrator...' - now follow the instructions...
Here is a quick YouTube video (not my video) of how to make an E2B USB drive using MAKE_E2B_USB_DRIVE (run as admin).cmd.
This MAKE_E2B_USB_DRIVE (run as admin).cmd script uses RMPartUSB.exe and a new version of grubinst.exe to make a USB drive as compatible as possible with a wide variety of different BIOSes and systems. I highly recommend you use the MAKE_E2B_USB_DRIVE (run as admin).cmd script provided or RMPrepUSB to make your E2B USB drive. Other methods (e.g. bootice, linux, etc.) may not produce such good results.
5. Enter the USB drive number (e.g. 4) and then choose F=FAT32, or choose N=NTFS if you want to add files larger than 4GB to the E2B drive.
(Note: NTFS is recommended and E2B can still be used for UEFI-booting using .imgPTN files).
If you don't want to use a MyE2B.cfg file, type S to skip that section for default USA settings.
7. Finished! - The E2B drive is now ready for use.
Now go to Add Payload Files to add your own payload files.
Tip: if it fails to format the USB drive as NTFS, run it again and select FAT32 - then re-run the script again to format it as NTFS.
\UPDATE_E2B_DRIVE.CMD
from that folder.
If you wish, you can add all the ISOs and .mnu and .txt files, etc. into the extracted folder too, so that when you run UPDATE_E2B_DRIVE.CMD, any new or updated files will be copied across to your E2B USB drive (but no files will be deleted from the USB drive). If you run the MAKE_E2B_USB_DRIVE (run as admin).cmd file, then a new E2B USB drive will be made and all your payload files, etc. will be copied across to the USB drive as well.
If you are very short of space, you can delete the 500MB \_ISO\CONTIG.ISO file (but you will have to remember to defrag all your ISOs).
Some AntiVirus products may block the \AutoRun.inf file from being copied to the USB drive (or may warn of a possible virus) - this file is not essential. You can either disable your AV or just not have a nice E2B icon displayed in Explorer. There is no virus and this file does not run any program.
Note: Check if your USB Flash drive is of the 'Removable' or 'Fixed' type (as listed by Windows Explorer or RMPrepUSB).
If the USB Flash Drive or USB HDD drive is listed as a 'Local Disk' or 'Fixed Disk' then you will either need to
A) also make a USB E2B Helper Removable Flash drive for some functions (e.g. Windows Vista/7/8 install ISOs)
- OR -
B) you will need to use MakePartImage to create .imgPTN bootable files from your Vista/7/8 Windows PE ISOs.

Make an Easy2Boot USB drive
Linux users - please go here. If possible however, use Windows to make the E2B USB drive because it will be more compatible on a wider range of systems.
Windows users - see below.
Tip: To make a multiple-partition USB E2B boot drive or use your existing USB drive without re-formatting or make an exFAT USB drive - see the 'Make an E2B USB drive using RMPrepUSB' page. Note that under Windows, Removable USB drives will only have one partition accessible to Windows at any one time.
Instructions (Windows - single maximum-sized partition)
Quick Instructions
1. Extract the E2B download to a new folder called 'E2B'
2. Run the \MAKE_E2B_USB_DRIVE (run as admin).cmd script
3. Copy all your payload files to the correct folders under \_ISO (e.g. \_ISO\MAINMENU)
4. Run \MAKE_THIS_DRIVE_CONTIGUOUS.cmd
3. Copy all your payload files to the correct folders under \_ISO (e.g. \_ISO\MAINMENU)
4. Run \MAKE_THIS_DRIVE_CONTIGUOUS.cmd
Detailed Instructions
1. Download Easy2Boot (either the basic download, or the DPMS version of E2B with XP 32-bit Mass Storage drivers)WARNING: If using a large USB hard disk, use this method instead and make sure that E2B is in the first partition and it is below 137GB in size.
This is because many BIOSes (even modern ones!) have problems accessing USB sectors beyond 137GB (internal hard drives >137GB may be OK, but USB drives > 137GB may not work because the BIOS USB driver code in many BIOSes has still not been updated!).
2. Unzip the Easy2Boot file (e.g. using 7Zip) to a new empty folder on your hard drive (DO NOT EXTRACT E2B DIRECTLY ONTO THE WINDOWS DESKTOP!)
3. Insert the USB drive into your Windows computer's USB port.
4. Use Windows Explorer and in the extracted E2B folder, right-click on
\Make_E2B_USB_Drive (run as admin).cmd
and choose 'Run as Administrator...' - now follow the instructions...
Here is a quick YouTube video (not my video) of how to make an E2B USB drive using MAKE_E2B_USB_DRIVE (run as admin).cmd.

I highly recommend you use the MAKE_E2B_USB_DRIVE (run as admin).cmd script provided or RMPrepUSB to make your E2B USB drive. Other methods (e.g. bootice, linux, etc.) may not produce such good results.
Note: Some AntiVirus programs such as Trend Micro may interfere with the copy process. Either disable the AV program, whitelist the autorun.inf file or delete the autorun.inf file from the download first (autorun.inf just displays an E2B icon when the E2B USB drive is displayed in Windows Explorer - it does NOT run any program).
5. Enter the USB drive number (e.g. 4) and then choose F=FAT32, or choose N=NTFS if you want to add files larger than 4GB to the E2B drive.
(Note: NTFS is recommended and E2B can still be used for UEFI-booting using .imgPTN files).
Note: Both FAT32 and NTFS will allow you to UEFI-boot. If you want to support UEFI booting, you will need to create .imgPTN partition image files. You can UEFI-boot from .imgPTN files, even if the E2B USB drive partition is formatted as NTFS, so there is very little disadvantage in using NTFS.6. Make_E2B_USB_Drive.cmd will ask you to specify a language, keyboard and menu option and will create a \_ISO\MyE2B.cfg file for you.
If you have a small (1GB to 16GB) USB Flash drive and all your files are less than 4GB in size, I suggest you use FAT32 which is easier to defrag (especially under linux).
Also, E2B will enumerate files on a FAT32 E2B drive twice as fast as a NTFS formatted drive, so the Main menu will load twice as fast if formatted as FAT32.
Even if you are booting a linux distro ISO file that does not support NTFS, it should still boot from an E2B NTFS drive!
If you don't want to use a MyE2B.cfg file, type S to skip that section for default USA settings.
7. Finished! - The E2B drive is now ready for use.
Now go to Add Payload Files to add your own payload files.
Tip: if it fails to format the USB drive as NTFS, run it again and select FAT32 - then re-run the script again to format it as NTFS.
Updating E2B
To update your E2B USB drive with a later version of E2B, download the non-DPMS version, extract it to an empty folder and then run\UPDATE_E2B_DRIVE.CMD
from that folder.
If you wish, you can add all the ISOs and .mnu and .txt files, etc. into the extracted folder too, so that when you run UPDATE_E2B_DRIVE.CMD, any new or updated files will be copied across to your E2B USB drive (but no files will be deleted from the USB drive). If you run the MAKE_E2B_USB_DRIVE (run as admin).cmd file, then a new E2B USB drive will be made and all your payload files, etc. will be copied across to the USB drive as well.

Looking for things to do with your new E2B USB drive? Look here.If you are very short of space, you can delete the 500MB \_ISO\CONTIG.ISO file (but you will have to remember to defrag all your ISOs).
Some AntiVirus products may block the \AutoRun.inf file from being copied to the USB drive (or may warn of a possible virus) - this file is not essential. You can either disable your AV or just not have a nice E2B icon displayed in Explorer. There is no virus and this file does not run any program.
Note: For E2B pre-v1.58 versions - If you used FAT32, the E2B USB drive will contain UEFI boot files (xxx.efi) which will run MemTest86 from a UEFI system. If these .efi boot files are present, some UEFI systems (e.g. Fujitsu LifeBook) may not boot to the E2B Main menu but always boot and run MemTest86, even if CSM is enabled in the BIOS. To ensure that the USB drive always boots to the E2B Main menu, delete the \EFI folder.
