Description Andrew Udvare 2022-12-06 02:53:21 UTC
I think by default Ventoy formats to exFAT and its root partition is useful to put things on like scripts. Unfortunately it is not possible to mount this root partition because there is no exFAT support in the livecd kernel.

Was mentioned in https://bugs.gentoo.org/853127

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot livecd
2. mount /dev/sdd (or disk with Ventoy root, where ISOs are, etc)
Actual Results:  
Fails to mount. Unknown file system.

Expected Results:  
Should mount without issue.
