A persistent live session can be created on the usb stick wherein you can run updates,etc. Then just plug that usb stick in the machine you wish to run it on and boot off it. I still have my Ubuntu 9.10 karmic koala live usb stick with persistence, and it works fine :) Another way would be to just install Ubuntu on that stick as a full install rather than a live session (with data persistence). > Advice is solicited for a distro which would run out of the box, easy to > upgrade and is user friendly for 'wincedows' people. > regards > Kartik > > I think Linux Mint (any version which you prefer and are comfortable with) should be good enough. These days, I have personally been leaning more towards Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE) due to the fact that it is a rolling release ! Hope this helps, -- Nandan Vaidya
