No Comments »Tutorial: Install and run live Linux from USB Pen drive with UNetbootin – Mount Linux on a USB Drive
Posted by admin on May 16th, 2010
UNetbootin is a handy tool that allows you to install and create Live USBs of various distributions of linux such as Ubuntu , Debian , Linux Mint , OpenSUSE , Arch Linux , Damn Small Linux , SliTaz , Puppy Linux , gNewSense , FreeBSD , NetBSD , xPUD , Frugalware Linux , FaunOS , Mandriva , CentOS , Elive , Dreamlinux , Slax , Zenwalk , MEPIS , Gentoo , Sabayon Linux , PCLinuxOS , Fedora and many others on a USB Drive.
It also allows you to install various versions of the same linux distribution.For example , you can install ubuntu Hardy as well as Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 via UNetbootin.
For the cause of the tutorial , I have used a 4 GB USB Drive , but most of the distributions will go on a 1 GB gear.But I still recommend you to use atleast 2GB USB Pen Drive. In this tutorial I have used Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 server edition and it worked fine showing that UNetbootin allows you to create and install Linux Server Editions Live USB too. (more…)
