If I copy and paste the iso file in my USB stick, will it operate, probably not.Ĭontinuing the exploration of the Debian website ( )
#Universal usb installer format ext4 download#
I download the iso file, and here is where my lack of Linux knowledge kicks in, I insert the empty USB stick and open a Terminal there. iso Debian DVD's, my first question is which one should I use, from instinct I would say the 4.4Gb release? I choose the most common distribution of amd64 DVD and got re-directed Īt this point I can see that there are three. I read the documentation of Debian online ( ) although I would be grateful for some pointers.įirst of all as advised I went to the download page and choose Downloading Debian CD/DVD images via HTTP/FTP

I install 13.04 onto one, and it sure was fast and stable on an Acer ZG5, it was a USB with 6.0MB/s +- write speed.ĭo remember that if you accidentally disturb your USB, i.e. Note that, on packages, they will usually said up to 10 MB/s for USB 2.0, but you need to test it yourself to be sure, I'm not sure if there is a website that does the tests and keep tracks of it. If you're using USB 3.0 you can get really fast, way faster than spinning HDD, but still slower compared to SSD, not that you will notice the difference unless you really do a lot of read/write. USB 2.0 is pretty okay, If you can get yourself a USB with read/write speed more than 7MB/s its comparable to a 7200 rpm HDD. USB 1.0 is slow, normal HDD will be way faster. Then just install on that USB.Įdit, the typer of USB drive you are using and the USB port you are using does matters. Enter Ubuntu, plug in the big USB you want to install to. Boot your computer/laptop with the USB that has the Ubuntu installer (I used Unetbootin to create one). Go to BIOS and disable your harddrive (You only need to do this if you're using old computer that doesnt support USB booting well). You dont really need to remove the harddrive.

Look for the screws on the bottom that secure the hard drive, remove, and slide the hard drive out. You can revise grub later, if you wish.If on the other hand you're dealing with a laptop Be cautious, many people have overwritten the HDD MBR. You may omit disabling the hard drive if, when partitioning you choose to install grub to the root of the usb drive you are installing Ubuntu to, (ie sdb not sdb1). Selecting "Encrypt my home folder" is a good option if you are worried about loosing your USB drive. Insert your name, username, password, computer name and select if you want to log in automatically or require a password. Default should be ok if HDD was unplugged. " = remaining space, (1000 to 2000 megabytes, or same size as RAM), Beginning and "Use as" = "swap area" then OK.Ĭonfirm "Device for boot loader installation" points to the USB drive. (Optional swap space, allows hibernation) " = 1000 to 4000 megabytes, Beginning, Ext2, and Mount point = "/home" then OK. " = 4000 to 6000 megabytes, Beginning, Ext4, and Mount point = "/" then OK. Make "New partition size." about 1000 megabytes.

(Optional partition for use on Windows machine) Select Download updates while installing and Select Install this third-party software.Īt "Installation type" select "Something else". Start the computer, the CD/USB should boot. Unplug the power cable from the hard drive.

A Full install boots faster than a Persistent install, is more secure and can be updated or upgraded. Have made several Google searches and can't seem to find what i'm looking for.Īny help is greatly appreciated, keeping in mind that my experience with Ubuntu and Linux is VERY little.Īny help is greatly appreciated, keeping in mind that my experience with Ubuntu and Linux is VERY little.Ubuntu can be made persistent on a USB stick, or you can install the entire OS on the stick - here's my thread about thisįollowing is step by step for installing 12.04.2 LTS on a 8GB flash drive on an Intel machine.ġ2.10 is similar. My intention is to be able to use the pen drive to plug into any computer and boot a 'permanent' version of Ubuntu with all of my settings/programs/etc saved, rather than a 'Live' version. Is there a way to do a 'permanent' install onto my pen drive? I tried clicking on install, but the only partition directories available to install on were the HDD or SSD. iso file and installed a 'Live' version of Ubuntu using Universal USB Installer from, and can boot from the pen drive fine.īut every time i boot the OS, it asks me if i want to 'try' or 'install' Ubuntu, and one of the applications on the left is an 'install' button. What i am trying to do, is a permanent install of Ubuntu on my 16GB pen drive. Ok, first of all i want to say that my experience with Ubuntu and Linux is pretty much zero.
