    Instructions for creating a live usb drive

    Hi,
    on ubuntu.com there's only an instruction for creating an usb drive under ubuntu. How can I achieve this with other linux distributions (e.g. dd... - what blocksize is needed? Is there an .img file?)?

    I'd like to have an ubs drive with the 64 Bit Version for my notebook that hasn't a CD-ROM.

    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks. So, there's no easy way like just using an img file?

    Doh, the live version doesn't show me the unity interface, only the old gnome look. I guess this is because of the missing 3d drivers for my nvidia card.

    Unity is working for me with a MultiBootUSB grub2 iso install.
