This list might be out of date (please report). Check repology.org.

Check Install Instructions document. Please also read the distro tweaks section.

The official manual is available at jsamr.github.io/bootiso. The reference should also be available as a man page via man bootiso. If you are in a hury, jump to the EXAMPLES section.

--probe (shorten -p) gives you details about ISO boot capabilities and list available USB drives.

--assume-yes (shorten -y) bypass prompting the user for overwritting USB device, and --autoselect (shorten -a) allow automatic selection of USB device when exactly one device is connected in combination with --assume-yes.

In the below example, the selected device with --device (shorten -d) flag is not connected through USB and bootiso fails.

• On Fedora, set BOOTISO_SYSLINUX_LIB_ROOT environment to /usr/share/syslinux.
