How to create bootable DEBIAN PIXEL, STRETCH, BUSTER and Ubuntu 18.04 on one USB stick

This follows the previous post on "How to create bootable PIXEL USB stick for Mac


The Debian PIXEL is for x86 platforms. The PIXEL ISO, the latest is a 2.0GB download is here
https://downloads.raspberrypi.org/rpd_x86/images/rpd_x86-2017-06-23/2017-06-22-rpd-x86-jessie.iso

Raspberry Pi Desktop image Debian STRETCH latest is 2019-04-11-rpd-x86-stretch.iso (2.4G) is here
https://downloads.raspberrypi.org/rpd_x86/images/rpd_x86-2019-04-12/2019-04-11-rpd-x86-stretch.iso

The new RASPBERRY PI DESKTOP image Debian BUSTER 2020-02-12-rpd-x86-buster.iso (3.13GB) is here
https://downloads.raspberrypi.org/rpd_x86/images/rpd_x86-2020-02-14/2020-02-12-rpd-x86-buster.iso

And the first task is to create a USB stick for Mac/PC for three Debian OSs with persistent feature. Important: The Linux kernel might not be able to boot up for the modern MacBook Retina Display driver. You might need the original Ubuntu 18.04 image in later task for these MacBooks.

For additional configuration and setting, or the Ubuntu images http://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04/ or http://releases.ubuntu.com/18.04/, and need to create a third partition casper-rw in Linux to enable persistence. please refer to the previous post.
For Ubuntu images, the related boot menu entries are as below, the non-persistent entry is used to setup the persistence and casper-rw partitions for the USB stick. The nomodeset is used when the video driver biit up failed with black screen. The Ubuntu 18.04 image should be more compatible with the modern Retina display

How to create bootable PIXEL USB stick for Mac

The Debian+PIXEL is for x86 platforms. The PIXEL ISO, which is a 1.3GB download.


The latest RASPBERRY PI DESKTOP image is DEBIAN STRETCH (add nomodeset in enterprise.cfg) https://downloads.raspberrypi.org/rpd_x86/images/rpd_x86-2017-12-01/2017-11-16-rpd-x86-stretch.iso

EFI bootable USB stick for Ubuntu 16.10 Exton x64 platforms (PC or Mac)

exton-os-64bit-mate-refracta-1840mb-161231.iso (which is Ubuntu 16.10 for x64 platforms) can be downloaded from here https://sourceforge.net/projects/exton-os/ and copy to /Volumes/LINUX/efi/boot/ as boot.iso

or alternatively use the exton-os-light-64bit-isohybrid-970mb-161021.iso image from https://sourceforge.net/projects/exton-os/files/

The setup for this image for persistence in Mac is similar to the Debian PIXEL above
except the enterprise.cfg content should be
