Feature changed by: a a (tremere51) Feature #311321, revision 3 Title: Suse Studio Live USB SUSE Studio: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: a a (tremere51) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: There is an option called USB raw image in Suse Studio and there should be another option for Live USB Hybrid image. USB raw image is not a live system image. It just installs the distro into the usb and extremely slow. There are some reasons why we should have an option for Live USB image. 1-Because of raw image is not compressed it takes so much space than live image.(600MB iso/2800MB raw) 2-Because of raw image saves your options with persistance, it lags all time but live image is just read-only, it never lags. 3- Because of USB is slower than HDD and no hardware cache, it is not suitable for installing. It - is more suitable for live image. 4- Because of Live image has - compressed filesystem with cached datas in memory, programs respond - very fast but in raw image programs respond very slow. Example:/ Live - image with usb boots 20 seconds, programs respond very fast, no lags - all time. Raw usb boots 70 seconds and programs respond very slow, lags - all time. Even live cd is faster than raw usb although cd is much - slower than usb. 5- With persistance we are being forced to save - options in raw image. What about the people who dont want to save - options? What about the people who just want to use live iso as - playground? - There must be some more reasons but these are enough to understand - importance of Live Usb Hybrid image and differences with raw image. + is more suitable for live image. For example Live image with usb boots + 20 seconds, raw usb boots 70 seconds on my computer 4- Because of Live + image has compressed filesystem with cached datas in memory, programs + respond very fast but in raw image programs respond very slow. 5- With + persistance we are being forced to save options in raw image. What + about the people who dont want to save options? What about the people + who just want to use live iso as playground? There must be some more + reasons but these are enough to understand importance of Live Usb + Hybrid image and differences with raw image. + Of course it has some disadvantages like using more memory and cpu.
