    Official MediCat USB - A Multiboot Linux USB for PC Repair

    Turns out that, if all you really want is the "Mini Windows 10" environment, then you can drastically cut down the used disk space all the way to just 1 or 2GB. Basically all you need is the "Mini Windows 10.wim" file (which you can put right in the root of your disk if you want rather that in...

    Official MediCat USB - A Multiboot Linux USB for PC Repair

    I don't suppose it's possible to somehow enable the extended 4096 character path length? I've run into Windows' default 256 character path limit particularly when creating checksum files from EXT4 partitions (which normally lack such a limit) whereby the resulting checksum is just 00000000000000...

    Official MediCat USB - A Multiboot Linux USB for PC Repair

    Not to continue junking up this thread, but I do kind of want to see if my theory of if consolidating posts only happens if the posts are within 24 hours. EDIT: This seems to be the case considering that this post was not merged with the previous. And so as to not just leave a stupid pointless...

    Official MediCat USB - A Multiboot Linux USB for PC Repair

    Maybe it only consolidates posts together if they're relatively soon one-after-another, e.g. without 24 hours, rather than days apart? Regardless, perhaps the reason RustDesk isn't included is because, for whatever reason, it actually doesn't seem to work on MediCat's mini Windows 10...

    Yet, at the same time, it seems that the free software alternative to AnyDesk, that being RustDesk, isn't included despite already being provided in portable form: https://rustdesk.com https://github.com/rustdesk/rustdesk So heck if I know what the qualifications are for including whatever...

    Official MediCat USB - A Multiboot Linux USB for PC Repair

    Sanity check: is Macrium Reflect present in the newest 21.12 version of MediCat, or was it removed? Unless something is behaving wrong, I'm not able to find it in either the start menu or the portableapps menu... For reference, Macrium Reflect is included in Hiren's BootCD PE (which is sort of...

    Wait, how would one go about doing this? I'm not finding any information, and the only information I'm finding still involves formatting and/or moving/transferring data (which is essentually the manual way I've been doing things already—move data to a second disk, reformat the first disk to...

    Try this: https://archive.today/RLljK However, from the edit at the bottom of the opening post, it sounds like you actually should be able to use a raw memory card dump as-is. I don't suppose the region for your real GC memory card is formatted in is different from the region for the game...

    I think only Devolution lets you directly use a raw GCMM dump? For Nintendont I think you first need to import the save (whether individual GCI or raw) via Dolphin's memory card manager and then use the resulting memory card image with Nintendont. ...I think. Don't quote me on this—it's been a...

    I'd say just manually re-update Ventoy to the latest version, even if the installed version is the same as the latest version. I had this issue with a standard Ventoy installation after updating Ventoy one time on an internal backup secondary SATA SSD and found out the hard way while in the...

    You can always use something like USB Loader GX which not only has an official forwarder but even has a bootmii replacement loader to put on an SD card if you want to boot straight into it; at least for GameCube games this will work even if the only softmod you have installed is the Homebrew...

    ROM Hack Metroid: Other M Redux (Based on Maxximum Edition)

    Two quick protips that could be improved regarding the Riivolution method instructions. 1. The easiest way to find the correct folder in Linux is, within Dolphin, go to File ▶ Open User Folder. From there, you just open "load" and the "Riivolution" folder is right there. 2. For real Wii...

    GC RE4 has built-in letterboxing; think of it like during cutscenes in Wind Waker, Mario Sunshine, or GC Metroid Prime, except it's there all the time on GC RE4. No amount of widescreen settings will solve that on the gamepad (though, specifically when using a TV, you might have a "zoom" picture...

    Yeah that sounds like the bug I previously mentioned. If you use the US version of RE4:Wii then you won't run into that bug and, even if the US version says it wants the nunchuck, the classic controller will work without issue... unless, of course, you wanted access to another language. :P Just...

    Just to clarify, unlike other widescreen GameCube games (e.g. F-Zero GX), RE4 is letterboxed rather than anamorphic. Only anamorphic widescreen is properly handled on the Wii U gamepad. And, to be clear, all widescreen Wii games use anamorphic＊, including RE4 Wii Edition. ＊there are some Wii...
