A live image is an ISO that you can boot directly to without installing on to your computer. You can place the ISO on a USB stick with Ventoy, and then during post you chose to boot from the USB instead of your installed drive.
Yes I know. I envision myself in a mercurial state Yanking the usb out as soon as I have driver issues. Making a partition for an install will take more work to undo, nudging me to commit to the change that I think will ultimately be beneficial.
If this sounds crazy, this is the kind of tortured process I go through on a daily basis to try to outsmart and tame my future self.
