I have a 64GB thumb drive that I am looking to boot multiple OS's off of. I have my PC running some of these with way to many partitions (and broken code) and I am trying to clean up things down to maybe one or two partitions to make there be less confusing for me and my family. 

 

Looking for a boot loader with a nice looking GUI too

 

OS list:

-Ubuntu Studio 15.10 and 14.04.4

-Ubuntu Mate 15.10 (trying it out)

-Ubuntu 15.10

-SteamOS

-Chromium

-RemixOS

-Solus

-ElementaryOS 0.3.2 (trying it out)

-ArchLinux (trying it out)

-Windows 10

-Windows 7 

 

Programs I have tried:

-Yumi PenDrive

-Rufus

-Easy2Boot

-XBoot

All with no luck.

I used Yumi for years and always had success with linux/WinPE distros but recently changed to Easy2boot because it can boot MBR and UEFI (YUMI doesn't support UEFI)

The menu's in easy2boot are dynamic too i.e. you copy an iso to the sub-folder and next time you boot it appears.

 

I've tested Easy2boot successfully so far (UEFI and MBR) with Linux Mint 17.1 and 17.3 (all flavours), a range of Linux antivirus rescue iso's, Acronis Backup & Recovery, Acronis True Image (only MBR), Windows 10 Home & Pro.
