If this works it means I can still use my laptop for basic work and wait till next month's to buy a replacement HDD.

#Unetbootin persistence install#

Thank you so much for the advice, I didn't realise it was possible to install into a USB drive With all the information I came across about live and persistent live, I thought they were the only options. Installation/FromUSBStick#Prerequisites () See the following links and links from them, This works best, if you disconnect/unplug your internal drive(s) before starting the installation. I mean install Xubuntu (or Lubuntu) like into an internal drive, but into a USB drive. the faster and bigger of your current USB pendrives (should work, if it is at least 8 GB, better if at least 16 GB). a really fast USB 3 pendrive, or an SSD in a USB box, if you have that possibility, or So if you need but cannot access the network via wifi, I suggest that you install Xubuntu (or Lubuntu) into

#Unetbootin persistence drivers#

And if I understand correctly, the wifi drivers are that kind of drivers. The kernel and these drivers are activated before the overlay structure. I think there is a problem if you need proprietary kernel drivers in live and persistent live systems. Lubuntu 17.10.1 and Xubuntu 17.10.1 are both good alternatives. This is a great advantage in a persistent live drive. Xubuntu Bionic Beta-2 looks good and has a much lighter desktop environment compared to standard Ubuntu. I tested the beta-2 iso files () of Ubuntu, Lubuntu and Xubuntu yesterday (and mkusb can create persistent live systems from those desktop iso files (but the alternate and server iso files can only be cloned to installer drives (not live or persistent live drives)).

#Unetbootin persistence manual#

See the instructions at this link, mkUSB quick start manual () It is well tested and works with Ubuntu 17.10.1 and also with Ubuntu Bionic Beaver to be released soon as 18.04 LTS. I would recommend, that you use the new mkusb version 12 alias mkusb-dus.

#Unetbootin persistence how to#

Is an old instruction showing how to use the old mkusb versions 9-11. Sudo -H mkusb /path/to/iso/filename.iso p I was going to use 17.10 for the persistent live but mkusb said it didn't have some configuration files for it so I decided to go for the latest LTS version. The issue now is that there is no taskbar and the pointer isn't displaying on the 16.04. Using GParted, create a large ext2 partition on the USB drive (filling the remaining space, if desired). Now, mount the USB drive somewhere and delete the casper-rw file in the FAT32 partition.

I think I have a persistent live drive as folders I just created remained after restart. Install Zorin-OS to the FAT32 partition of the USB drive using Unetbootin, specifying a small persistence file (2 MB is enough). Have you done that yet? Or are you still working on USB drives, trying to make a persistent live drive with Ubuntu? I am having to restart a fair bit and my router isn't in a convenient place to maintain a wired connection.

#Unetbootin persistence driver#

What I am trying to do is have a persistent live USB so at the very least I can have the WLAN driver present. I haven't done a dual boot system as my HDD has bad sectors. Most people want to make a full installation of Ubuntu into an internal drive (maybe alongside another operating system, a dual boot system). It was a persistent live Ubuntu system 16.04 LTSģ. How did you use mkusb (did you create a live-only or a persistent live Ubuntu system)?Īs per those instructions, I used sudo -H mkusb /path/to/iso/filename.iso p How did you install mkusb? In what system, with which method? Reboot and sellect grml.iso from boot menuįinally you can manually create USB drive contains multi Ubuntu versions, HBCD-PE-64 and multi Windows installation without any especial multiboot creation tool.1. For example, if the ISO is located in the user's Downloadsįolder, the command would be: sudo mv ~/Downloads/ /boot/grml/ Since this is a system folder, the operation must be conducted as Place bootable ISO files in the /boot/grml folder. Install grml-rescueboot sudo apt-get install grml-rescueboot The created menuentry, when selected, provides submenu options on how to boot the ISO, including the 'Try Ubuntu' and 'Install'

Grml-rescueboot doesn't require usb drive, it will add iso file to your current system boot menu.Īutomatically adds menuentries to the GRUB menu for any ISO files located in the /boot/grml folder. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gezakovacs/ppa You can use UNETBOOTIN to create multi bootable Live USB drive for Ubuntu and other Linux distributions. After that, you can add any ISO file to a USB drive's home directory to get it in Ventoy's USB drive boot menu. Ventoy is a tool that runs one time to make a bootable flash drive.
