Instructions
Notes and warnings
- If you choose the wrong drive letter, you can mess up your computer!!!
- The persistence file is what allows you to save your work, if you do not choose a persistence file, you Live USB will act like a Live CD
- Sometimes Ubuntu will hang at a busybox and initramfs screen while booting, just shut down the computer, and try again, it works for me...
- Some antivirus report a virus or possible virus related to "wget" or "zip/tar bomb" - This is related to the simple fact that cd2usb includes the wget tool (100% malware free), and cd2usb also includes highly compressed archives of persistence files. cd2usb is 100% malware free and if you want, you can compile the tools used and then use it (with the exception of robocopy, freeware tool from Microsoft, which I got from microsoft.com, all the rest is open source)
