Yet Another Multiboot System
===========================
NOTE: I recommend to use the new project [Ventoy](https://github.com/ventoy/Ventoy) . It has more functions and is better designed. Therefore the YAMS project is archived.
YAMS or Yet Another Multiboot System is a bootable image designed to be used as an All-in-One USB flash drive.
You can boot Windows, Linux ISOs, EFI files or Tools.
## Features
* Based on GRUB 2
* 64-bit (x86 & ARM) / 32-bit (x86) UEFI (+ Secure Boot) support
* BIOS / UEFI CSM support
* Windows support
* GNU/Linux support
## Installation
Download the [YAMS image file from the release page](https://github.com/Sporesirius/YAMS/releases) and write it to a USB flash drive that you can create e.g. with [Etcher](https://www.balena.io/etcher/) (for Windows, Linux and macOS).
The YAMS image contains two partitions, one is the $ESP (FAT32 512MB) partition and the other is the YAMS (NTFS 512MB) partition.
Use [gparted](https://gparted.org/) for Linux, [MiniTool Partition Wizard](https://www.minitool.com/partition-manager/) for Windows or similar tools to resize the YAMS (NTFS 512MB) partition to get full USB drive space.
