Planning to make a Live USB

Living outside of the windows is just so much better. This time, I am going to do something useful and interesting. As the title said, I am planning to install a Live Linux in a USB flash drive. Just in case that you don’t know what is a Live USB. Here, I will tell you little bit about it. Live USB is a very useful multi tool in term of computer usage. Imagine that you can install your very own desktop (OS) on your little handy USB flash drive, carry it around the world, and use it in almost any computer. Sounds cool isn’t it.

I have been thinking about this for a while, and actually tried it couple time without any success. Anyway~ Here is what I am going to do this time. I am going to make 2 Live USB, one with a basic Distro, and the other with a more advance Distro. The reason for that is because, I want to use one of them as a normal flash to transfer my daily data, so I am not going to give up too much space for the Live Linux. And the other one use as power computer multi tool. As the Liunx Distro be more powerful, it would take up more space. Both my flash drive are 8GB so even for that, I will still have a lot of space. (At least 4GB) If you ask why I have such huge flash drive. Go be come a digital photographer, and you will see why. hehe.
