[SOLVED] booutable usb with apps on it

[PaulosK]

Hello, I want to make a bootable ubuntu usb, but to have some apps on it. so I don't have to install them every time I use the usb. How can I do that?

You can create a persistent file (google it) and anything you install or download will stay there.
Some usb burning tools have this option or if you are good with commands you can do it by yourself.

I've actually tried this recently, and one major issue running any normal (and even light) distros from an usb thumb drive is that its very slow.
Even MX Linux appear slow when installed on USB thumb drive, but it works at least - other not-so-light distros may not work that well - dependent on the usb stick performance of course.

A better alternative is a system tailored for this, such as NomadBSD.
