Yes, you can install both Windows 10 and Linux on a single USB drive to create a dual-boot setup. However, this process is a bit more complex than installing a single operating system due to the way Windows and Linux handle partitions, bootloaders, and drive requirements.
Hello, after this process I can successfully start Linux Mint from USB on my computer. However, when I try to start it on another computer with the same USB, the computer reads the USB but it does not appear in the BIOS or I get an error during startup. How can I solve this problem?
I have a problem it says this Could not create MokListRT: Volume Full Could not create MokListXRT: Volume Full Could not create SbatLevelRT: Volume Full Could not create MokListTrustedRT: Volume Full Something has gone seriously wrong: import_mok_state() failed: Volume Full
Hi I've having trouble trying to flash a SSD drive using either of those programs. I created a volume with GPT and MBR and can see it fine in win 11 neither of those types of volumes seem to work. I disabled everything in windows defender and ran the apps in admin mode. It doesn't show up as a device in rufus. Balena etcher doesn't allow me to select the target after opening the image file. Is there some other way to image a SSD in Win 11?
@@PulsarTECH Hi I actually got it to work . The latest version of balena etcher isn't working. I had to download a version from a year ago on GitHub and then it worked perfectly.
Hi, when you install Linux Mint on a USB drive and use it across multiple computers with different hardware configurations, Linux Mint is quite versatile and handles hardware changes dynamically. Linux Mint has a modular driver architecture. Most common hardware drivers (for things like Wi-Fi, graphics, audio, etc.) are included in the Linux kernel itself. It will detect the new hardware (like CPU, GPU, network adapters, etc.) and load the appropriate drivers for that hardware from the kernel's built-in set of drivers. For some hardware, especially proprietary drivers (e.g., for certain graphics cards), Linux Mint may need to download and install the correct driver, but this would typically happen only once per new machine if needed.
Hi, how old is the computer that you're using? Do you use USB 2.0 sticks? Try switching to USB 3.0. Though it really shouldn't take so long. Maybe the USB drives are old or have some issues.
I couldn't see my 128 GB install USB stick when choosing the bootloader destination so I choose the same as the installation(1 TB SSD USB). I got a warning but all is working fine.
That’s interesting, glad it worked out for you! though if you try it on a different machine, it probably won't boot. To fix it, check out the video I have just posted to repair bootloader on USB drive.
@@PulsarTECH When I boot from the stick, I have the option to boot to the Kubuntu installed in of the computer SSD but no option for Windows 10. But it's fine for me. Also, Kubuntu has no problem with Wine for my old Windows games, Will try to install them later. NVidia driver is more recent in Mint.
@@heatherjones9090 If you're getting a message that says a kernel is needed while trying to install Linux Mint on a USB drive, it may indicate an issue with the way the bootable USB drive was created or the configuration of the system boot settings. Here is another video that might help: th-cam.com/video/SUusI68BKS4/w-d-xo.html
When I’m trying to boot from the usb on a other device then the one I was setting the portable ssd up on it says: Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key

Thank you for this complete guide. I needed these step by step instructions. Is it necessary to verify the ISO?
Thanks for your feedback. It is recommended to verify the iso to check for its integrity and authenticity.
Big thanks for sharing this awesome tutorial, I'm looking forward to get Linux installed on my USB drive and use it😊
Hope you enjoy it!
Thanks for mentioning the keys to enter the boot menu for different machines 👍
Any time!
Oh wow, that's awesome. I wonder if you can make a dual boot on a USB drive? Like Windows and Linux?
Good idea

I am going to make my own USB stick Linux OS as well. Great detailed video.
Glad it was helpful!
I like Linux Mint. Great guide btw.😎
Thank you
Keep the good work up! You nailed it!
Thanks! Will do! Thanks for your support.

It sounds like the USB drive may not be configured properly for the second computer. Here's how to fix it: th-cam.com/video/SUusI68BKS4/w-d-xo.html
Helped alot! Thank you for this guide!
Glad to hear it!
Great, thank you very much! Will be very helpful to me.
Glad to hear that!
Can i install the linux mint on the same usb as it was flashed on?
thanks man

Hi, I would suggest you use a USB drive to flash the ISO on and use SSD to install Linux Mint on.

Having trouble with putting the .iso into balenaEtcher it's not showing up when I try to flash it. Any guide on what to do?
Hi, try an alternative way with Rufus.
@@PulsarTECHThanks! It worked :D

Yes but how to keep all drivers for all graphics and chipsets usualy after some updates, system get optimized for existing PC and the rest is cleaned.

hi nice video, but I have a problem; the installation took 4 hours and it was only half done, how can I solve it?

Thanks for your feedback!
Can I put something else on the usb?
Hi, yes, you can store other files on a USB drive with Linux Mint installed as a bootable OS, provided there's enough space on the drive.
@@PulsarTECH Thank you! Btw, wonderful tutorial! I am having a lot of fun with the terminal! Keep up the great work!
@@LucasBoss6354 thank you for your feedback. I have a few ideas for new Linux videos. Yes, using terminal is fun!

Linux mint only boots up on the pc i was installing it with onto the portable ssd.
I can’t find any explanation on why is that happening.
Also when I plug it in while windows is running it doesn’t reed the portable ssd as a storage device.
When I’m trying to boot from the usb on a other device then the one I was setting the portable ssd up on it says: Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key
On the other computers the boot device that is the portable ssd is called storage ssd SanDisk 1000gb not Ubuntu as ont the computer I set it up on
I tried reinstalling mint onto the portable ssd using a different computer, the problem still persists but now the other computer doesn’t boot mint
You beautiful son of a gun😤🫡a real trooper
