I was wondering if it was possible, because I can't fully install Mint on my laptop because I only have one drive and I don't want to do partitions.

yes, Rufus flasher allows to set that up easily. Works on any Ubuntu-based distro

#

Universal USB Installer also has it.

#

note: don't use an expensive USB stick. excess i/o on the flash drive may kill it. if you can do the procedure onto a usb-SSD or usb HDD, much better

I only gave it 5gb tho

limpid owl

dont expect to install hugeass programs though.

I just turn off my laptop but the power still has light

#

the more programs u installed, and get introduced into the live persistent loop file layer, the slower all kinda gets

#

check ur power settings 😛

#

I just hard reboot it and it's back to normal happypepe

#

And then I could turn it back on like normal

oh. so it means it went to sleep

#

i guess. so check ur "Power settings" for default action of power button

#

did it save your changes at least? like if u changed wallpaper, etc?
