USB Booting Linux
It is sad, there are only few utilities available for booting Linux from a USB stick or Flash Drive.
1. Number one is MultiSystem DVD that comes in both 32 bit and 64 bits.
It has many utilities including Gparted.
It can boot many Linux distributions except Debian and few of the new Puppy Linux derivatives.
It is from France but it gives multiple language support now.
It can be booted to a USB or Portable hard disk.
Only downside is, there is no root or user passwords.
If you lose the stick anybody can look at your private data.
I give Priority to Privacy Now which is violated by CIA and MI16/15.
2. UnetBootIn
Please follow the instructions given in Pendrive Linux site.
Both Debian and Peppermint Linux do not support, UnetBootIn.
I am not sure Ubuntu supports it.
I have given up testing Ubuntu after Unity Desktop, which they have given up, has gone back to Gnome, according to Linux Magazine.
3. USB Boot-In Utility
In Peppermint Linux there is a Utility that lets you installs a single Linux distribution in a USB Flash
Drive.
I forgot two others with plenty of Utilities.
They are
4. Puppy Linux
5. Knoppix

Debian the clear winner-The Gold for Light and Heavy Weight Championship
Now that the industrial action is over, we brought the Hero to
Gyro (not giro and we could not be bought by money circulating on
illegal hands or corruption) except perhaps few individual who had
vested interests and wanted to be heroes at the expense of the general
body politics of our action perpetuated by sheer needs and not
aspirations (fell far short of aspirations of accountability,
transparency, fairness).
These instant Heroes had unassailable lead and they had to be pulled down to base level and gyrate them on the correct path lest all of us would be heading for disaster.
We never had the political will to bring Heroes to Zeros but the vision to come to the base level we reached way back in 2008 and gyrate in correct orbit instead of asking for miracles which we will never achieve the way we sink into dirty tricks and manipulations by undesirables.
I hope senses will come to body politics of the country, unless of course the voters will bring the Heroes to Zeroes in double quick time at the correct gyroscopic orbit and time and they are not stupid or donkeys who carry burden.
We are of course in the minority in that context and what we can provide is wisdom if not vision.
We came to equilibrium position neither zero nor hero but a position of comfort from where we can gyrate to greater heights if correct recognition is extended.
Otherwise history will take us backward (like in cricket) instead of forward.
Debian
Coming to IT industry where there are commercial heroes but the clear winner which gyrate at the correct orbit is Debian.
It was no surprise.
Score of above 3000 and well above the Gold Standard of 2500 for the standard CD.
For the heavy weight category it is within the Gold Mark where no other distribution has all the components at hand with over 30,000 package well tested.
It has gParted which is around 100 MiB with partition and security features.
It has Blender, Scribus and Inkscape.
Only missing component was O.E.M. component.
It did not have a printed book but thanks to French and the English translation is due soon and available on line as open source.
It has all the versions from Mini to KDE to Server.
It has multi-language support including Sinhala.
It does not pretend to be a (commercial) hero but the wise counsel to all the other distributions which include Ubuntu and extending a hand to Linux Mint currently.
Additionally it is forging with FreeBSD too.
It is the clear winner.
If I said without my marking scheme everybody will say I am biased. Now it is vindicated and flame wars are not the necessity but a feature of Linux and its multi-faceted distributions..
Now I can say with or without bias it is the one that guides us and the Gyroscope for years to come.
If you need a solid, stable and secure enhanced Linux, there is only one and only one.
It is called Debian.
It is not for the lazy souls and it is the one who wants to dig a lot, sweat a bit and enjoy a lot of the hard labour.
Nothing is easy in the IT World.
One has to go into simple command line and give commanding orders till midnight commander sleeps like a sleeping beauty!
