Hello all,

I am going to be running Ubuntu from a USB and will be running only a miner and setting up pool and such on my rig. Will something like this be sufficient?? I know it will be very sluggish, but it should be good enough to run the OS and download a simple mining program and I should be good to go correct? If not could someone please tell me what path I should take?

I know Vosk does something like this with smOS. I want to do the same thing with Linux basically.



something like this is what I mean: https://www.amazon.com/Ubuntu-Linux-16-04-Bootable-Flash/dp/B01MR5OTM0/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1512436512&sr=8-4&keywords=linux+usb

I know you can write your own, too.


Thanks so much all. you are all amazingly helpful
