G2FM
This is the GRUB2... as a file manager. And it boots files. But way more easily! Also an alternative to Ventoy.
The way I think it does this (I have analyzed the code fully yet), is by simply by looking inside the boot image, see's if it's in a specific layout that belongs to an OS (Windows, MacOS, Linux distributions...), and then gives the user a set of options (ISO map to virtual drive, ISO map into memory), but also shows options specific to the type of the boot image. (I keep switching from ISO to boot image, I swear...) And with all of this features, it will boot almost anything!
This file manager can indeed copy files, and view them, but you can't delete files as far as I know. Also copying doesn't work for some files because it seems to restrict it to FAT32/exFAT file systems. It might be possible to get it to work for NTFS, ext2/3/4, etc.
It used to set the resolution to 1024x768 by default, but it now auto-detects the correct resolution. (May not be correct on some devices!!!)
Actually, I am the only contributor. I don't why, but when I "detach" a fork from a repo, it does this. Probably just how GitHub works.
I don't know. Do you think so?
Sometimes a lot, sometimes slowly. Depends on what I'm doing...
Just use any program that can write ISO files to your drive. Like Rufus for example, or Ventoy, another multiboot solution. (you CAN also just use this instead of g2fm) (loopback support should be working)
Just have patience, it's going to take MONTHS before I can get it out.
