You can create a bootable USB flash drive to use to deploy Windows Server Essentials. The first step is to prepare the USB flash drive by using DiskPart, which is a command-line utility. For information about DiskPart, see DiskPart Command-Line Options.
Tip
To create a bootable USB flash drive for use in recovering or reinstalling Windows on a PC instead of a server, see Create a recovery drive.

I have a 64GB usb stick that I carry on my key-ring. Right now it has only a single partition with all of my portable data on it. I don't really need 64GB of file storage, and I want to start carrying a Windows 10 install disk as well. Rather than carry two usb sticks with me I want to use the extra space on my current one. Looking ahead at the upgrades I'm going to have to do for family in the next few weeks, I've decided I should have 4 partitions, and for simplicity I've made them all roughly 15GB. Here's what I want them to be:
1. The first partition should continue to be my data files. I have around 5GB of data now, so 15 GB should be plenty of storage. 2. Windows 10 installation media, both 32-bit and 64-bit. 3. Windows 7 Universal installation media. 4. The final partition can be smaller, but I want it to contain installers for common programs (chrome, malwarebytes, adobe reader, etc). I have created the 4 separate partitions on my usb drive, and I have the iso file for Windows 7 All In One. I downloaded the 1803 Media Creation Tool for Windows 10, but that's where I run into problems. I can run the tool and tell it to install to a specific partition, but it instead erases all partitions on the drive and creates a new 32GB partition that I can't shrink. Is it at all possible to have 2 bootable (not at the same time, obviously) partitions for windows files AND a separate partition for data?
I have sandisk 32 GB USB partitioned in two partitions. Both are FAT32 format and first is 20 GB and second partition is of 10 GB.
I use 1st partition for file storage as it is detected in windows and 2nd partition is not detected (don't event want to) which I want to create bootable persistent Ubuntu.
While using Startup disk creator in Ubuntu 16.04, it only shows whole USB as a single and there is no option to select from two partitions.
How could I use 2nd partition to create bootable using Startup Disk Creator.

I tried to do this as well. There is a problem though. In windows only the first partition will be visible. Even if you use startup disk creator in Linux, your windows will only see the partition containing the bootable Linux.
However this should only be true on USB pen drives. USB HDD or SSD should not encounter this problem.

I believe your answer is right here:

So same as first answer.3. The ally can do damages, but you must kill all the clones.if ur allies kills a clone you wont get the achievement.2. Hvy gun drone kill will not count as your kill. Dawn of war tau. The 5 sec starts as soon as the first clone dies.4.
OK, so I created two partitions on an 8gb flash drive, I then put an ISO on the drive using Disk Image Writer Unfortuently it over wrote all the partitions and created this:
As you can see the ISO takes up very little space including the second partition which I believe is the swap. But it did leave 6.6gb of free space.
My suggestion is that you save the data off your drive, burn the ISO, and then take the free space and make that data space, and move your data back on there. As long as you use FAT or NTFS, windows should not have an issue mounting the drive.

Making the drive be bootable requires overwriting the beginning of the whole drive so all partitions are lost because the partition table is overwritten. Once you have made a Linux boot image then adding a FAT or NTFS partition after that should be seen be Windows. Backup your data.
