Download Armory and TrueCrypt
Use a separate, extra USB drive to transfer information to/from your LiveUSB session:
  • Download and verify the Bitcoin Armory package for Linux, which includes all dependencies for offline installation to Ubuntu.  Match the Ubuntu version and bitcount.
  • Download and verify the latest stable version of TrueCrypt for Linux.  Select the Standard version for the corresponding Ubuntu version and bitcount of your LiveUSB.
  • Save both files to the extra USB drive.

Was a while since you wrote this. So I dont know if it perhaps changes since you wrote it.
But there are a ubuntu link. Use that instead?
And this link?
0.91.1 (Offline Bundles)   Ubuntu 12.04 (Exact) Offline Bundles

And know I see that I downloaded ubuntu latest 12.04. But they have some text that saying that it might not work:
Quote from: armory
These bundles were made against Ubuntu 12.04.3 which appears to have a different package/dependency set than the latest 12.04.4.  If you have trouble with this bundle, please install 12.04.3 (exactly) from the following link:  http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/12.04.3/
But i guess its only to try and see if it works.

Another question.
Never runned ubuntu before. So this first is only for testing before I run it on my cold computer.
But if I run this usb on my hot windows 8 computer. Can the usb ubuntu OS "damage" my HD win 8 OS? Or is it ok to run 2 os on same computer without problem?
