Rufus released the Beta 4.5 version of the installer / live usb disk creator.
Here are the changes:
- Add a new advanced option, that adds runtime UEFI media validation to suitable images (Windows, most Linux)
- Move the Use Rufus MBR advanced option to a cheat mode (Alt–A)
- Fix truncation of VHDX images, as well as a benign error message when writing VHD/VHDX (#2468)
- Fix support for Linux persistence in some configurations (Mint, Ubuntu 24.04)
- Fix multiple potential vulnerabilities (with thanks to Mansour Gashasbi)
- Update internal GRUB to version 2.12
- Update UEFI:NTFS to latest (now always uses the ntfs-3g driver, rather than the buggy AMI NTFS one)
- Increase buffer size when copying ISO files, in an attempt to minimize the AMI NTFS UEFI driver bug
- Improve partition creation handling
- Don’t display the WUE dialog when a conflicting
unattend.xml
already exists (#2451)
