Live discs, as distinct from CD Live discs aren't CDs? I always burned a live image onto a CD and then put that into a CD/DVD drive. Is there a way to stuff a live disc into a USB slot on a computer wihout an optical drive? I must have missed that option because I certainly would have loved to do that.
The live media spins of Fedora are well over 700MB. A CD can only hold about 700MB max on special media (about 470MB for standard media), so no, they're not CD images for most folk. You can put a live media spin on a USB stick using several methods and they work fine--assuming your hardware can and will boot a USB stick. Not all will. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigital ricks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 22643734 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - Charter Member of the International Sarcasm Society - - "Yeah, like we need YOUR support!" - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
