Well that certainly wouldn't be too good for your USB drive's lifetime. Though it might work (haven't tried it myself though), I would just do that with a persistent filesystem and a livecd combo; it won't damage your USB drive that much and it'll be slightly faster, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistentI have always liked live systems you can boot up on more then one computer. Right now I am using PuppyLinux on my 1GB Corsair USB memory (and I'm pretty happy with that btw). If I have understood this right, can I use Bubakup to "copy" my system on a USB hard drive and boot from it on my computer with exactly the same enviroment? (only slower I understand)
It worked the last time I tried, yet then again, that was back in the early development stages of Gutsy; something might have broken sinice thenAnd what's more interesting, is this inplented in Ubuntu 7.10 ?!
