Migrate from one operating system to another is something that can be tedious for some, especially novice users.
A new tool called Live USB Install allows us test, from a pendrive, various distributions in a very simple way. |
LiveUSB Install is a handy utility for Windows and Linux systems that allows you to install almost any Linux distro on a USB stick and turn it into a Live USB. You can create your own Linux distro from an ISO you already have, a CD or let the program download it from the Internet
Installing an ISO image |
LiveUSB Install supports hundreds of Linux distributions and provides us with an interesting way to carry our favorite distro on a pendrive.
What I found very interesting about this tool is that it does not stick to the most common distros (such as Fedora or Ubuntu), but allows you to test other less known at a general level such as Asturix, Backtack or xPUD, for example.
Anyway, an interesting alternative to UNetbootin.
I like multisystem better http://liveusb.info/ 🙂 you can do anything with even persistence
If I have a 16 GB pendrive and I install the distro. Then can I get those 16 GB back when formatting ..?
Yes, but the result you get is not the same. This method that you comment is the one to use to install some distributions (such as MeeGo)
I am one of those who appreciates simplicity and console. Given this, it is much easier for me to execute: dd if = imagen.iso of = / dev / sdX
Well of course !!
I always recommend YUMI for MS WOS or Multisystem for Ubuntu and derivatives, it allows to have several Live Operating Systems in a single Pendrive
How is that? When we start from the USB, what appears to us if we have 2 or + Operating Systems, a dual boot but inside the pendrive ?.
I am very interested in having several OS within USB ready to use.

I recommend you read this other post:

There is precisely that issue.
Cheers! Paul.
I loved! It is very easy to use and simplifies the process when you want to install several Linux distros (I have that bad habit 🙂
This time I used it to test Android. It is a pity, yes, that the most recent versions are not supported.
For those who use windwo $ the best, in my humble opinion, is "Linux Usb Creator", aka "Lili"
YUMI - Multiboot USB Creator allows multiple liveCDs in a single USB stick, it is very useful.
