From another source, these are not “my words”
Let’s see.. first Ventoy rewrites the cmdline used by the installer
- this undermines any hope of using measured boot, as cmdline is a protected attribute needed to be cryptographically verified to protect your boot
- it breaks SELinux or AppArmor
- it breaks zypper by confusing YaST into thinking the Ventoy stick is a repo, not an installer
- it breaks any legitimate alteration of the kernel cmdline for handling drivers or other system mandatory adjustments we need to support
In short - it dicks around with stuff it has no right to, causes endless cases of people screaming about “openSUSE is broken” on the internet
Lots of people have successfully used Leap/Tumbleweed images with ventoy to successfully install them, but it’s not consistent, I can’t predict which user will be successful, and which won’t, but it happens often enough, that I feel safe saying that ventoy is not a method to be recommended, for installing any openSUSE Distribution.
As usual, you can do whatever you like, nobody is stopping you.
For further information, this is just from a couple days ago.
