Installing Slax On Usb
Slax is a Live operating system based on Linux. Live means it runs from an external media without any need for permanent installation. Slax boots from USB mass storage devices such as Flash Drive keys as well as from regular hard drives and CD/DVD discs. Simply plug your device in and boot from it. Entire Slax operating system resides in a single directory /slax/ on your device, making it easier to organize with your other data.
Slax provides FluxBox window manager already preconfigured for the most common tasks. Included is a Web browser chromium, Terminal emulator xterm and simple text editor leafpad and calculator qalculate. You can put Slax on wide range of different filesystems, including EXT (ext2,ext3,ext4), btrfs, and even FAT and NTFS.
When Slax is started from a read-only media such as CD/DVD, it keeps all system modifications in memory only, and all the modifications are lost when you reboot. On the other hand, if you run Slax from a writable device such as USB Flash Drive, it can store all changes there, so all your configurations and modifications are restored next time you boot, even if it is on a different computer. This feature is known as Persistent Changes and you can read more about it in a separate chapter.

How To Install Slax On Usb
Install Slax On Pc
Open Finder and search for Slack (make sure This Mac filter is selected). Highlight all copies of Slack and delete them. In your dock, right click on the Trash icon and select Empty Trash. Get the latest version of Slack, and install it in the Applications folder. That folder is then set as the 'base' folder and Slax will then look for a 'changes' folder under it which is writeable and NOT NTFS. To get persistence to work you need a FAT32 USB bootable drive. Extract the ISO /slax folder to your USB FAT32 drive and rename the slax folder to something unique - e.g. Slax70832 for the 32-bit version of 7.0.8.
