Use your SailfishOS device to boot GNU/Linux Hybrid ISO images on your PC.

Also you can use some other disk images. Just add "iso" extension (tested with SD card images for BeagleBone Black). Theoreticaly you can boot even Windows images after making them hybrid.

Use USB "Charging only" mode for better compability.

My fork on github.

If you encounter any bugs create issue on github.

Known problems:

  1. Sometimes system refuses to map file as drive source. Rebooting device should resolve this problem.

I think you should install official build and report bugs there.

can you add the features that the app search for an ISO on the memory card or specify a target directory?

It's planned. Will be done when there will be more free time.
