It's just a illustrative picture, newfriend.
That being said, there's a handful of distros that can be fully installed in a 4 gb usb stick
>>53835203
I think you mean pen drive.
>>53835386

>>53835203
I think you meant jump drive
But im not a faggot? Why would i do that?

I use the drivedroid android app to install Linux distros now. More convient to use compared to USB drives.

nah senpai that's not what I wanted. I wanted to have a bunch of em on one drive. like I wanted to use it to install Debian on my laptop, Windows on my friend's box, boot memtest86 to overclock my desktop, then go to the coffee shop and use Tails from public wifi, all from one stick.
and it almost worked, but didn't.
>>53835203
I do though, my home server runs off of an USB drive.
>>53835733
You can do that with one of these.
>>53835203
why even do that when it is already packed with windows 10?
Is anything posted on this board not ironic?

Welcome to 4chan. We are usually not serious if the thread sucks. Please lurk more, this is not reddit.
Have the -exact- same stick with arch linux iso on it... creepy. Old as shit also but still... oooo.
Because I have my thumb drive set up with Windows 10 media anon
>>53835203
My laptop doesn't appreciate booting without replacing "quiet splash" with "nomodeset" .. don't feel like reinstalling grub because it's a faggot.
SanDisk is GOAT!

I'll probably get rid of it once I stop fucking up my install every day, but until then...

Because it always has issues when you try using it on another computer than the one where you initially installed it on. If it worked flawlessly itd be a good idea but if fucking doesnt.
Why is everything having difficulties installing the drive? When I made my Mint install drive it also worked as a to-go OS, with the option to install.

>>53835203
>usb stick
>>53840691
Its not that I have problems installing it on the stick, its that it only works properly one the machine I initially installed it on. Rendering its supposed portability advantage useless.
Why not install it on the main hard drive then?
>>53840718
the only autist here is you. who fucking cares m8
>>53835203
Because I have a full OpenBSD install on a flash drive
>>53840718
dingus thingy
>>53840718
no "usb" option 0/10
why use a inferior os?
>>53841676
I don't know, anon. Why would you use Windows?
>>53841676
That's why OP was asking why people aren't using Linux on a flash drive.
Windows belong to trash
>>53835203
does everyone have this flash drive?
>>53840591
Oh shit I had this thing in high school, had a fucking laser pointer built in as well
>>53835203
because the time hasn't come where I will be able to use it as my own portable pocket pussy
>>53835646
why not just
>add USB as rawdisk to virtualbox
>install Linux on usb
you won't even have to worry about fucking up your bootloader
>>53835509
