Make Startup bootable USB Ubuntu Linux 10.04 flash drive in Oracle Virtual Box
See how to make a Ubuntu Linux 10.04 LTS live USB flash drive with a Ubuntu ISO image and Oracle Virtual Box. No CD burning or Ubuntu install in Virtual Box is required. This is one of the fastest and most hassle free ways to make a Bootable USB live Flash drive with Ubuntu installed on it.
You need to first make the virtual machine in Oracle Virtual Box and mount your Ubuntu CD or ISO file on your newly created Virtual machine by going into the settings for Virtual Box and setting the CD to your Ubuntu ISO install Live Cd which you download from Ubuntu. Mount your USB thumb drive which has at least 700MB of free space or is 1 GB in size. Also, make sure the USB drive is at least a USB 2.0 drive. If you have a USB 3.0 drive it will be faster, but USB 2.0 is good enough for a Ubuntu live Flash drive. Save your settings, and start Ubuntu from Virtual box.
Wait for Ubuntu to load and pick "Try Ubuntu 10.04 LTS". Once Ubuntu is done loading, you should go to your System then Administration tools and Make Startup Disc creator, and pick your USB thumb drive. Click the "Make start up disc" button.
If you like, you can change the amount of space Ubuntu reserves for storing your personal files like music, docs, videos, etc.
Wait for Ubuntu to finish making your Ubuntu startup USB drive. It should take about 10-20 minutes depending on how fast your computer is and how fast your USB is.
The benefits of installing Ubuntu on a flash drive compared to a CD is it is faster, and quieter, and you can also install programs on your Ubuntu Flash drive and put your files on your drive.
