Hi James, others,
Yes, please do share any tips, tricks and tools you have worked out re
USB creation (and other tips) in our wiki. A starting point for
collecting USB ideas is here:

And if you have ideas which are "production
Thanks for accepting me in OSGeo-Live PSC.
I'll do my best to help the project.
Best,

Not sure if it is useful to others but I wrote a program [1] to help me
when Bob wants a bunch of OSGeo-Live thumb drives created. It isn't by any

I would like to also support the idea that it is convenient to have someone
(ideally many) to do the "mass production" of the OSGeo Live USBs esp for
training and education programs globally . Are there any SMEs doing this? If
not, this is a great opportunity for the SMEs in the OSGeo
