Dual Boot USB-Stick (qemu / Persistentboot)

[RobinVossen]

Hello, I am wondering if there a way to install Linux on a 8Gigabyte Pendrive that I can either boot from USBDrive as a OS.
Or run Virtual Using Qemu or something? And then automaticly make it setup correctly so all the USB-Slots work and the Network Connection works?
Is there a Tutorial or a Document about this?

Thanks

Kind Regards,
Robin Vossen

There are plenty of distros that specialise in this as well as tutorials that allow you to configure existing distros to boot from USB.

Check out Slax, it's my favourite. It's less than 200MB and has a full KDE environment on it. Network and USB will all work automatically unless you have some funny configuration or hardware that generally doesn't work in Linux.

heh, I know how to make a LiveUSB but I want it Either to be LiveUSB or that I boot a VirtualBox in Windows that will automaticly use it to boot. Is that even posible?
