cloneTo16GsimulatedDrive ISO IMG

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

cloneTo16GsimulatedDrive allows one to copy the contents of an ISO file to a plain IMG file, and add some additional structure. it's giving ✨leveled up disk image✨ fr fr:

  • a VFAT partition (sized 1 GB) 🦋
    • This partition may be used for data exchange. Windows7 used to recognize such a partiton, Windows10 and Windows11 don't. 💀
  • an EXT4 partition 🌸
    • this partition is there to feature persistence of data. When all structures are in place, the size of the IMG file is 14 GiB, so it can be burnt onto any '16BG' memory stick. Bigger sizes of memory sticks are of course valid. 👑
ngl, the persistence thing is the main character energy here — your data literally stays. 🫶
