I have only tried boot from usb on a friend's portable, using puppy linux. You boot the iso from cd, then install to usb from the running live, with a choice of two or three booting methods. We were not sucesful, and we spent all our available time. We'll try again when we can. I'd like to try oS too, but it seems that the puppy linux distro is very nice and small on usb.
if you can boot a device, puppy should able to work (even on NTFS file system, even with windows :-) very special distro, but very impressive jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://valerie.dodin.org http://news.opensuse.org/2009/04/13/people-of-opensuse-jean-daniel-dodin/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Writing to NTFS is possible, but last time I tried it was slow and cpu-intensive. And I don't know how safe it is, so I prefer not doing it.
very special distro, but very impressive
Quite so, yes. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

Time is not available to people who use linux for a living. You can't go back later and say you'll fix it. By the way people who answer maybe people use Linux as a possibiility. When you use it as a reality it hurts. Many people use it because they cant afford anything worse. Si si, hay que leerlo dos veces.

I've installed openSUSE from a USB CD/DVD drive on multiple occasions. How well that works depends primarily on the computer's firmware.

Eh?

Rubbish. I use Linux as a reality for 8+ hours a day, on a laptop even. It works *very* well and saves me lots of time over other alternatives. If you want to run Linux then buy Linux compatible hardware.

I can afford Windows and I do; running inside the commercial VMware Workstation. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
