I had never heard of petitboot.
The information at:
https://packages.debian.org/buster/petitboot
https://manpages.debian.org/buster/petitboot/petitboot.8.en.html
is just enough to tantalize.
It may be appropriate for a personal project.
I have a machine dedicated to multiple experimental Debian installs.
If I read the above links correctly, petitboot will allow me to chose any
system installed on the primary drive or connected flash drives.
Suggested links?

Thank you. That will aid me in installing/setting-up petitboot for
initial experiments. Analyzing how petitboot.sh works should answer
questions I don't yet have context to ask.
I was looking for link(s) discussing petitboot itself rather than
particular applications of it.
