[NTLUG:Discuss] Installing Linux on USB Disks?

[Stan Gatchel]

I found this interesting article about preloading Linux on USB disks. I
was just wondering, if I bought a blank USB disk and tried to install
Linux, would it work? Has anyone done this? Does it show in Grub? What
happens when the disk is unmounted? What happens if you mount it on a
different machine? What hardware similarities are required for it to run?

Maybe this is a way to test new distributions.. just partition a USB
disk? Can it be that easy?  ;-)
