I know, I can create a live CD of Linux, I know I also can create a bootable Linux installation on a jump drive. I’m curious is can I actually do a full install of mint Linux on an external drive and actually run it that way. When I say run it I mean actually add packages remove packages, etc. i’m asking because I have a currently working Windows 10 computer. And until I really understand Linux especially how to properly install it. I prefer not to screw something up on a working system. I figured install it to an external Drive and then just tell the bios, don’t boot the windows drive just boot into the external Drive.
Would this actually work?
it’s because you’re not using windows. The superior OS to Linux
Ok that I didn’t follow . I think you typed something wrong
The “superior OS” is whichever one meets the users needs the best.
For most people Windows works just fine because a PC is an appliance to them, and an important feature of an appliance is simplicity for the user.
But for others Linux works better, especially if you want to do anything server related
Ha ha, you got mad 😆
