ISO wrangling - Etcher and Ventoy

If you fiddle around with computers, and especially with Linux drives, you’ll often find yourself with an ISO file you need to boot a device from. These can’t just be copied onto an existing USB or SD card - they need to be bootable, so you’ll need a special program to write the ISO to the storage device.

Previously I’ve been a big fan of Balena Etcher . It couldn’t be much more simple - you chose the ISO file you’ve downloaded from somewhere, chose your removable drive (it intelligently hides the non-removable drives to prevent you from accidentally wiping your hard disk), then tell it to do it’s thing.
