However, I just came across this: https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Installation_on_external_hard_drive
I'll have to try that too.
Incidentally, the reason for all this is I bought a 128 GB USB 3.0 stick today for $10. I expect with USB 3, it will be fast enough to be a usable portable system.
I would not risk it that way. A standard installation on an external disk is not optimized to minimize writes, which will kill the stick fast.
Carlos, are you sure about this?
Yes.
I don't have experience with USB live sticks and earlier I also read what you are saying. But I used an SSD
I did not say SSD. I said sticks. SSDs are much faster write than sticks and will last much longer. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
