Puppy Linux is a great Linux distribution to place on a USB key. It's easy installation instructions make it a breeze to install. From boot up to installation on your key in under 10 minutes. It's just that fast. Puppy Linux 3.0 was released October 2 2007 and I thought I would give a small tour on walking your puppy to the key. Enjoy!

ReviewLinux.Com: Puppy Meet My USB Key

Puppy Linux 3.0 was released on October 2 2007. I am familiar with Puppy Linux and its USB key functions. I have done many an install of the Puppy onto 1 gig usb keys. Puppy Linux is the perfect release to run on a USB key as it is lightweight, fast and stable. Creating a Puppy Linux file system and save file is a breeze with Puppy Linux's universal installer wizard.

I am going to take you through a few pics of the install process. I am installing Puppy Linux 3.0 onto a PQI 2 gig USB key. I have never had issues with this brand of usb key. I downloaded the Pupp Linux 3.0 ISO and created a CD with my burning software. I booted the CD and was at the Puppy Linux Desktop in no time.

Finished inital install and rebooted to USB key. Below are pics after booting from key.

Overall the install process to make a bootable USB key running Puppy Linux was probably a 5 -10 minute procedure. Puppy Linux developers make it simple to get a working Linux running on a USB key. What I didnt show in the pics was the creation of the puppy save file. This process started once you do your first reboot after installation. You are prompted to decide where to place your save file and how large. One thing to note is that you can always make your save file bigger but never smaller. The above pics showed from intial bootup of Puppy to installing from the universal installer to configuring network to actual browsing. It was that easy. Now you can have a portable Linux system in a small USB key. Excellent for travel as you can have all your settings saved on the key for easy display on any computer that can boot from a USB drive. What I didnt mention is I format my keys at FAT16 and because I do not fill up the key it leaves some space for you when you travel to use the key for those happy family photos that need windows to place them on a key drive. <grin>

Just a short little tour of Puppy Linux 3.0
