Dear All,

I would like to ask something about Linux .

Can I install and use the Linux in external harddisk ? Can It be boot from external hard drive ?

Because I don't want to install to my PC and Laptop. I only want to install on external hard drive and use on 2 PCs may be at laptop or PC .

Can it be possible ?


Thanks
ABB

Of course you can install LINUX on your external Hard Disk Drive...

Sure you can. Here is an example using Ubuntu:

If you plan on using the external on two different machines you will have hardware problems, I don't think I would try it.
