I have some USB sticks, and I want to use them as portable Linux USBs. However, I am stuck on which distro will function the best. Here are my possible options:
- Fedora KDE Spin (installed directly to the USB)
- Fedora KDE Spin (in live mode, but with persistence)
- Fedora Kinoite (installed directly to the USB)
- EndeavourOS
I do have a USB3 flash drive, but I would like something suitable for USB2 speeds, if that will give okay speeds. I would also prefer to use a Fedora distro, however if troubleshooting Fedora is as easy as Endeavour, then I don’t mind.
I will also be installing other programs (Steam, LibreOffice, etc.) onto the USB after I install the OS.
I’ve been running Mint XFCE this way for years! Mostly as a stupid computer trick, but it’s occasionally super helpful, especially where someone just needs that one doc off a non-booting windows.
