Q. I want to make a bootable live usb for both linux(ubuntu) and windows 7...how to do it??please help....
A. The Linux one is easy. Just download and run PendriveLinux with your favourite distro .iso. Select it from the dropdown list when you run it. http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/ If you make a Persistent file, then it will save changes you make to the installation on the USB drive. I have a really nice Pinguy installation on a USB stick.
Windows 7 is a bit trickier, in that Windows doesn't allow you to do that sort of thing. I doubt that it's possible.

how do you know if your PC can boot from a USB?
Q. I am looking to get a linux LIVE usb. And was wondering if my PC is new enough for it to boot from the USB.
Its a 2002 IBM Netvista desktop.(solid nice machine)

A. Insert a blank USB stick (some BIOS versions won't give the USB boot option if one isn't connected!) and restart.
On startup, keep tapping either F1, F2, F10,(Be Aware that some manufacturers also use F10 for system recovery!) Esc or Del (depending on your system) until you get to the BIOS setup screen.
Look for an option to change boot device, or similar, and see it it's listed. If it is, you're good to go âº

Is thumb-drive-based Fedora slower than said operating system installed to a hard disk?
Q. I've finally convinced my father to let me install a Linux distribution.
The only catch? It has to be on my USB drive. So, I'm going to install Fedora Live USB.
Will there be any differences in speed compared to hard-drive located Fedora? I don't want to have a bad impression of the operating system.

A. A RAM-based drive (which is a thumb drive) is actually faster than a hard drive, which is why Vista allows you to use one as a disk cache - to speed up disk access.
The difference will be speed - you'll gain it. (But a thumb drive has a limited number of writes, which is why that's only a temporary solution. You'll kill the thumb drive in a year, or a few years. An SD card may be a lot cheaper for the same size - if your computer has a card reader.)
