Multiboot usb key with 32 and 64bits debian installers and debian live
Preparing the usb key
- Create a partition table and make a fat32 partition that uses the whole usb key space.
cfdisk /dev/sdb mkfs.vfat /dev/sdb1
- Install grub on the usb key
mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt grub-install --no-floppy --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sdb
- Create a grub.cfg file in /boot/grub/ with the following contents:
menuentry "debian-installer-i386" { linux /boot/vmlinuz_i386 vga=788 -- quiet initrd /boot/initrd_i386.gz } menuentry "debian-installer-i386 expert" { linux /boot/vmlinuz_i386 priority=low vga=788 -- initrd /boot/initrd_i386.gz } menuentry "debian-installer-amd64" { linux /boot/vmlinuz_amd64 vga=788 -- quiet initrd /boot/initrd_amd64.gz } menuentry "debian-installer-amd64 expert" { linux /boot/vmlinuz_amd64 priority=low vga=788 -- initrd /boot/initrd_amd64.gz } menuentry "live amd64" { linux /boot/live_amd64/vmlinuz boot=live live-media-path=/boot/live_amd64 persistent-path=/persistent/amd64/ live-config persistent initrd /boot/live_amd64/initrd.img } menuentry "live i386" { linux /boot/live_i386/vmlinuz boot=live live-media-path=/boot/live_i386 persistent-path=/persistent/i386/ live-config persistent initrd /boot/live_i386/initrd.img }
