Re: TravelerOS - Fully portable USB distro based on Q4OS
They just renamed the Live session ISO and took out Q4OS Installer bits? lol
If it at least had some form of persistent storage it would be a bit interesting.

"TravelerOS is meant for users who want to try/use linux, without installing it to the hard drive, meaning that you can store apps, games, documents, and other stuff without it erasing on reboot."

Well, so at least they weren't so lazy copycats.
Although I don't know how hard is to add persistent storage for a live environment.
I've seen that they took """inspiration""" (stole the Grub code? Lol) from another portable Linux too, not just Q4OS.

Re: TravelerOS - Fully portable USB distro based on Q4OS
Its actually not that difficult to add persistent storage, but I wouldnt want all my data on a USB stick that can be lost or damaged. Im with you BrJPedro theres a lot here that Im not wild about.
