I just noticed that mtkclient now offers a LiveDVD iso image with everything pre-installed. This should make it a lot easier to use rather than always fighting with dependency conflicts on Linux, which has happened to me already when using mtkclient.
Set up a USB drive with Ventoy, and then just drop the iso file onto the ventoy drive.
I created the USB with ventoy and I put on the iso file. When I plug in it doesn’t automatically open.how do I get it to boot?
you need to get to boot menu, each computer is different but it’s usually done by booting up while pressing f2 or f12
I tried both and I also found some way to do it through settings but it boots into windows.
Thanks worked, but didn’t boot will use Rufus.
Works perfectly with ventoy for me.
Thanks, its great.
Can you switch the desktop environment to Gnome or Cinnamon?
I can’t stand Xfce.
Your iso.
could you add it?

just puting it out there as a caution for the oilam; if your computer/ laptop is filtered and you use liveDVD (your boot menu was not blocked by your filter) you can access the web unfiltered (for sure via curl and wget)
I think this is important to point out.
Anyone want to make a filtered ISO?
I started doing that and stopped. Too much to block and even then I dunno if it’s foolproof. Don’t want to build a custom os
I mean, technically you can just disable the network drivers, change root password, and keep only user accessible…
I might eat my words, I’ll see
Edit - or, make setting up a network connection, whether wired or wireless require root
I could try that with my current live iso
1. Changed root password
2. Removed user from /etc/sudoers (can’t use sudo)
3. Blocked all outbound traffic for non-root users using firewall
4. wget, curl, ping and nmcli only accessable by root
5. Removed the network icon from the panel (taskbar)
6. Stopped user from manually turning network interfaces back on
Testing it out. You guys want to do some testing?

If it’s good I guess I’ll make a post.
1. Autobooter is included, but needs root to run. Will set it to run as root no matter the user.
2. Mounting drives can need root. You might want to use an internal drive to flash from or save to from mtkclient. Will find some way to auto mount drives. As of now I think external drives do get auto mounted. I could test, but I’m in bed, and my computer is in the other room. So faaar.
I am putting aside auto-mounting internal drives. Too many issues unless I’m just missing something. External drives seem to work fine.
epic! I’ll try to download when I get a chance
Great! Lemme know
Its from the original Mtk Client Live DVD, or the Android Tools Iso?
Just added on to my android-tools iso
