   From the Hardware 2.0 mailbag: Can you install Ubuntu on a USB flash
   drive?

   Yes, yes you can. Here's what you need:
     * Ubuntu 8.04 Live CD
     * USB flash drive (4GB+)

   If you don't have an Ubuntu 8.04 Live CD then you'll need to
   [34]download the .ISO file and burn one.

   Before we go any further I think that it's important that I point out
   the dangers associated with this process. Specifically, if you make a
   mistake and install Ubuntu onto your system's hard drive then not only
   have you lost data, but you've become a Linux user. You need to make
   sure that you choose the right drive.

     Tip: If you want to eliminate the chance of overwriting one of your
     hard drives then you can physically disconnect them before booting
     from the Live CD.

     Note: Back up the data on your USB flash drive if you don't want to
     lose it!

   Here's the process:
    1. Boot up off the Ubuntu Live CD.
    2. Kick off the Ubuntu install process.
    3. Word your way through the guided install until you get to the Step
       4 - Prepare disk space. Here make sure to choose Guided - use
       entire disk.

       Note: I've only got one drive displayed - all others have been
       disconnected.
    4. Carry on working your way through the install until you get to
       Step 7 - Ready to install. Here click on the Advanced
       ... button. Under Advanced Options make sure that Install boot
       loader is checked and from the Device for boot loader installation
       drop down box make sure to choose the correct drive to install the
       boot loader onto - this is of critical importance if you still
       have your hard drives fitted! When you're done click OK and
       continue with the install.

    5. Now it's mostly a matter of playing the waiting game as Ubuntu is
       being installed on your USB flash drive.
    6. When the process is done, remove the Live CD and reboot.

       Note: If you disconnected your hard drives, now is a good time to
       reconnect them!
    7. Remember that to make use of your Ubuntu-powered USB flash drive
       on a PC you'll need to use the BIOS or boot loader to choose the
       option to boot from USB devices.

     Note: If you have VMware Workstation installed then you can create
     your Ubuntu-powered USB flash drive from the comfort and safety of
     a virtual PC - also, since you can boot up off the Ubuntu .ISO
     file, you don't need to burn a CD!

   Enjoy!
