Now, I have a laptop with Windows 8. For various reasons, I want to install Ubuntu that I can carry with me on the various PCs I work with. The same installation so that I don't have to constantly take care of installing new things and dependencies.
Can I do a full installation of Ubuntu in a USB?
Can I install softwares and other things in the USB itself so that I can boot it anywhere I want?
What is the difference of this installation from full installation on a laptop harddisk?
What features will and will not work with the USB option?
Thanks!
