How to Install Linux Ubuntu to a USB or External HD

[lancrew101]

first thing i did was i muted the sound

[dajokaqi]

will this only work with ubuntu? or can i do this with any linux OS? i have never used either, but want to try it

[dadslad125]

do i need to have the usb in all the time, or does it automaticly load up after i have installed??

[pcpik3r]

thats what i did when i got my laptop without a hdd

[AbaiiChalDrin]

It did not work to Intel Pentium 4 1.60 ghz. I got 2 hardrives. I want to install Ubuntu 10.04 on the other. But now? I've tried the Ubuntu 11.10 and still didn't work. What's the problem? It just show me dots, and freezes eventually.

[AbaiiChalDrin]

:D About how much of disk space for a USB FlashDrive would be needed for Linux Ubunto to run smoothly? Will a 4gb drive work well?

[xPnoyStar]

@AbaiiChalDrin of course .. i have an 4gb and it works on my laptop :D

I'm running Windows XP SP3 and I want to install Ubuntu 11.04. The USB is ready and formatted. I change the BIOS setting to USB-HDD but it wont load the Ubuntu setup and it starts Windows normally...what should I do ?? ...Epic song BTW.. ;)

[chefedogang]

@Albanez39 you need to change bios to boot by CD in order to install to usb .  only after successful install you change your bios again to start from usb

[haza102]

009 sound system... ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR­RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[epicturnip]

Haha Ubunto XD

[dorkvader1881]

Ubunto? lol...

[mrtechhow2]

@dorkvader1881 its a free os made by linux

[dorkvader1881]

@mrtechhow2 no i just meant he was pronouncing it wrong :P

[mcgarrybd]

Is this the same process for ubuntu netbook remix?

[FischundCoProduction]

okay but after i installed it on my usb (ubuntu 10.04) my other system was broken after that i installed it new

[chefedogang]

@FischundCoProduction did you change the grub also to the USB ?

[FischundCoProduction]

very cool but did you change something in the BIOS

[kaborakid]

@FischundCoProduction just the boot order , to start always by usb

[dreamzcape2008]

good.....(^_^)oo

[dovaje]

will this also work if I use a partition of a usb HDD?

[chefedogang]

@dovaje yes , in a external HD it will be faster than USB :)

[dovaje]

@chefedogang thnx mate.

[dorkvader1881]

@chefedogang Actually, a USB would be faster, as it is essentially a small solid state drive

[iFastforwrd]

@dorkvader1881 no reason since its usb2.0.. it caps the speed, even on a traditional hdd.

[mrtechhow2]

@dovaje as long as you have enough space

[MrPooppy1]

nice laptop

[eflores112]

what happens after your restart the computer and you don't have the usb plugged in?

[chefedogang]

Will start from HDD will boot the system you have installed .
