Install Ubuntu on USB pendrive

[Avidanborisov]

You could take the old computer then and install just Ubuntu on it and use the new computer with just windows on it when you need it

forget about it
I will buy a new computer and I will do dual boot with windows...
please answer the more important questions...

[Kirboosy]

if so, is there an ext4 read write driver for windows?

no there isn't ext4 support. Unless someone updates ext2fsd

Well, is there any other tool?
cause I would really like to have ext4 cause it is fast but I will also need to access it from windows so I will have to go on ext3.
thats the problem...

Install this tool, format the USB Flash Drive, install.

Then go plug it into your designated computer and from the Boot in BIOS run from USB.

There are no more tools (that I know of)

Maybe you should revise the project and develop a new version.

Just a thought, if you do have a large flash drive, you may be able to create a separate /home partition on your usb, and make it ext2. Then you'll be able to have Ubuntu installed on ext4 but your files will be on /home formatted to ext2 so windows can read it.

But many user are Complaining about this tools that it isn't working to read-write ext-4,

What if you put your important stuff in NTFS, so that it can be Accessed by both Windows/Linux,
I have dual-booted Windows and Ubuntu and i have all my important data on NTFS Partition and i am able to access them from both....
