Hey @NavyLCDR: [Note: tried the experimental method. Works fine using the WIM Image (Ramdisk) approach. I didn't check the EMS checkbox, either. Thanks for the great guidance. You should do a tutorial on it. Lots of people could benefit from this.]

Yes, please do a tutorial. It would be a great benefit to other users.

1) Create a Small FAT32 > 2GB < Partition at the end of your drive

Note: You can create up to a 32GB Fat32 Partition

2) Copy ISO Files to partition

3) Run Batch File to add Bootable Partition to host Boot Menu Options

PESE_BootMenu_Option.7z

4) Batch File will ask for partition "Drive Letter" and ask you to type a "Name" for the Boot Menu Entry..

Note: Batch just runs simple windows bcdedit commands to add the boot menu option....

That looks good. Different than what NavyLCDR wrote. Results are the same basically but the4 process is a bit different.
Add the steps necessary to create the 2GB to 32GB partition (Minitool Partition Wizard is one way) and it would be complete.

Make it an official tutorial, similar to the ones Shawn Brink writes and I'm sure Shawn would add it to the Tutorial section.
