Thank you! I really wanted to try linux for awhile without committing to it and this was very clear and easy to understand
I tried this and I didn’t like it since it was too slow, so I tried installing linux mint normally, which doesn’t require to turn off secure boot, but I kept getting the security violation error no matter what I do now, and when I turn off secure boot and try to install linux mint that way, it only shows the usb drive, nothing else, its driving me crazy, please help
thank you
What is this Persistence Program u mentioned in your video name?
Installed it but used the OEM option and didn't verify the ISO as it ws tooooo complicated. Please advise and shall I reinstall like you say?
Cannot read your subtitles….what language is it?
Help….installed on 3 PCs….but, u never talked about…..1. when I insert the USB I used OEM option and now when I start my PCs it says Temporary User…..why. Please advise…..cheers from Canada….2. On one PC it is alongside XP, and, on the other Linux Mint Cinnamon is all alone on a 500 GB HD.
What did you do to make it WITH PERSISTENCE?? I must have missed that.. I'll watch again…
I have done this exactly as shown in the video.
Some things are persistent such as background (wallpaper) change,
I have a bash script and app / extensions installed to support it and they remain installed after restarting however I am unable to make certain changes.
I am trying to get it to boot in text only mode instead of quiet splash, I am able to modify that grub file.
However when I try to… sudo update-grub
But it gives me an error of failed to get canonical path of ‘/cow’
occurs when the root file system is mounted as read-only.
So what am I doing wrong ?
Will changes to the OS like scanner drivers be installed on a laptop?
This sistema is much easier but is there a difference between this install and the one who requires 2 usb drives?
Rufus doesn't work on linux
did not work
How do you do this from Linux Mint, though.
Can u pls tell how much storage is required to run mint os..
as i have 16gb pendrive and i think i forget to set that persistent size while making bootable but next time when i would be making then how much size should i set to be persistent??
Also when ever I open file manager in my live boot mint pendrive it always shows only 2gb space available…
So kindly tell me size limit i should set for persistent in 16gb pendrive..
It works but is super slow and keeps on freezing. Firefox is unusable.
I am struggling with re-booting a PC after the installation to HD, the secure boot/legacy is disabled. Am I doing something not right?
thank you so much for making this video!!!
TTHAAAANK YOU! works with 64gb usb on NFTS but I say use 46GB of persistent!
great tutorial! It is almost an identical process in 2022. I use it to play games on school computers
