If it is small enough, it might be nice to add the option to load it
into ram.
(I can't remember what that is.. maybe zram??) something like what
puppy does.
A 64bit system with EFI will (almost assuredly) come with enough ram to
make using 64bit worthwhile (more than 4 Gig).
Just a thought..
Thanks for the info!

Hi Rafael,
1. No it is not made to be installed with Unetbootin.
In linux, I think it is easiest to use mkusb according to this link
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1958073
In Windows you can use 7-zip and win32diskimager according to the
description
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/UEFI-and-BIOS#Installation_from_a_compressed_image_file-1
2. Yes, it is persistent, because it is an installed system.
It behaves like a system installed to an internal drive, except that it
might be slower depending on the pendrive's hardware and the USB system.
A fast USB 3 pendrive in a USB 3 system is almost as fast as an internal
system. A fast USB 3 pendrive in a USB 2 system is much faster than a
standard USB 2 pendrive.
Best regards

Because I'd like top get rid off my harddisk boot and use this.

Hi Phill,
I have uploaded a compressed image file of a system for high end
computers, contrary to what I have been working with before.
This is a portable installed system that boots in UEFI as well as BIOS
mode. It can be installed into a USB pendrive and is a good alternative
to a persistent live system, because it can be updated and upgraded
without limits.
See the description in this web page
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/UEFI-and-BIOS
and it is uploaded to your server at
http://phillw.net/isos/linux-tools/uefi-n-bios
The method described and the 'final product' as a compressed image file
work for me in a Toshiba notebook according to the following
specification.
http://www.toshiba.se/laptops/satellite-pro/c850/satellite-pro-c850-19w
I don't know how specific or portable it is until tested in other
computers with UEFI.
I think the method is more important than the 'final product' in this
case, and it will be interesting to find out how portable it is.
Best regards
Nio
