Post Ars Technica // Linux on a flash drive

Have you ever wished every PC you come across had Linux installed? With SLAX and a USB flash drive, it's a possibility. In this edition of Linux.Ars, we share the knowledge on how to install the SLAX distro on a USB thumb drive and boot a PC from it.
The ability to boot the key, browse the computer's hard drive (SLAX has NTFS support built in), and then locate and burn a file to CD can be very helpful, especially with a computer that is on its last legs. So grab your key and come with me, when were done you'll have a new tool to help out in the computing trenches.
On top of that, Tools, Tips and Tweaks shows you how to install NVIDIA drivers in Debian. Plus, we have another Cool App of the Week and the usual news tidbits from the world of Linux. Dig in!
