Referencing older tools here, some of them in the Window$ space; but maybe
there's an option for you.

You can create an ISO of the drive, and use something like YUMI (
pendrivelinux.com)
or unetbootin (unetbootin.sourceforge.net) to boot this ISO. I use
Unetbootin in Linux to
create CentOS, Red Hat, and Fedora bootables in our lab.

By design, YUMI can handle multiple ISO images from a single USB

A few years back (2009?), I used PeToUSB to create a multiple boot USB to
boot
several system tool ISO's and images for testing. This was before I had
access
to a complete VM option.
